...Boggan, a Long Island University assistant professor; Jack Howard, 36, an IBM programmer, and George Buben of Detroit, who took along his wife. The male players, besides Howard, were Glenn Cowan, a longhaired student from Santa Monica, Calif.; John Tannehill, 19, a psychology major at Cincinnati University; Errol Resek, 29, an immigrant from the Dominican Republic and employee in the Wall Street office of the Chemical Bank, who was accompanied by his wife, and George Braithwaite, 36, a graduate of New York's City College, a United Nations employee and the only black in the group.

Prinking Lotharios always meet their match, of course, and Sellers' downfall comes at the hand of a goofy colonial bird (Goldie Hawn). Sellers is fitfully amusing when not indulging an inexplicable penchant for removing his clothes. But not even his comic talents...
...visually portrayed. Serious film criticism in the U. S. has gradually assimilated the most basic French ideas. In terms of the auteurist's gradual relinquishing of rationality, however, America's only auteur critic prior to Sarris was Manny Farber, who specialized in glorifying Raoul Walsh's James Cagney and Errol Flynn epics for readers of the Nation or Commentary...
