Show Notes
In part one of a two-part episode, Frank celebrates the 100th birth year of the legendary Peter Sellers (b. 1925), accompanied by a distinguished panel of Sellers scholars, including actress Illeana Douglas, filmmaker Danny Gold ("Blake Edwards: A Love Story in 24 Frames") and Emmy-winning screenwriter-producer Larry Karaszewski. In this episode, the experts discuss the actor-comedian's eccentric behavior and "complicated" personality and look back at some of his most memorable films, including "Being There," "Dr. Strangelove," "The Party," "A Shot in the Dark" and "After the Fox" (among others). Also, Larry gets nostalgic about "The Magic Christian," Illeana phones up Billy Wilder, Frank reviews "The Ghost of Peter Sellers" and Danny weighs in on the tumultuous Sellers-Edwards relationship. PLUS: "Kiss Me, Stupid"! "Bogart Slept Here"! Paging Federico Fellini! The genius of Hal Ashby! And Illeana meets the great man in person!
