...narrative trap, but in the process its tail end is somewhat mangled. Up to that point, though, the Roger MacDougall-Stanley Mann script is a fairly witty example of a rare film form: political burlesque. It keeps the show bouncing along despite a director (Jack Arnold) and a star (Peter Sellers, a sort of second-company Alec Guinness playing several roles) who have not mastered the light-fantastic style that suits and supports this sort of flimsy British whimsy...
