Peter Sellers, 54, peerless English master of mirth, a man of many faces who slipped easily into parts as diverse as the crazed Dr. Strangelove, the bumbling Inspector Clouseau of Pink Panther fame and the brilliantly bland gardener turned presidential adviser in Being There...
...begun an investigation of the atrocities. So far, 15 policemen and officers have been suspended, including one jail superintendent, for neglecting to note the injuries. Ironically, he had assigned attendants to help the blinded prisoners in his custody and had forwarded their petitions of complaint to Bihar's inspector general. The government has also named a team of ophthalmologists to determine if any prisoner's vision can be restored. There may be hope for a few victims, but in most cases, the optic nerves have been destroyed. Mrs. Gandhi has promised about $2,000 compensation to each victim...
That may not be the only question the designers of the exhibition had in mind when they arranged it, but the question is unavoidable. The selections were made by J.

But de Broca (King of Hearts, Dear Inspector) overcomes this structural weakness by focusing on important and abiding human concerns -- fear of aging, jealousy, hypocrisy, sexual morality, and the value of love and family. The somewhat contrived plot is ultimately less important than the mood, which is wonderfully wistful and lyrical...
