This film tells the life legend of the famous British actor Peter Sellers. As an actor, Peter Sellers has been nominated for Oscar 3 times in his life, and has not been nominated for n British Film Awards, but this does not conceal his superstar brilliance. In 1955, "The Ladykillers" The Ladykillers (the Coen brothers participated in the Cannes film is adapted from this), he was involved. In 1959, he won the British Student Award for Best Actor in the UK, as well as the The Pink Panther series of The Pink Panther, the 1962 edition of Lolita, and Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb, "Alice in Wonderland" and so on. In 1980, his starring "Being There" won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor. Especially in "Dr. Strange Love", he plays the four corners alone, which can be described as acting crazy. The photo of the man with glasses below is him.
Director Stephen Hopkins, the most popular work in the United States is to be regarded as the drama "24 Hours", and this time the television film directed by HBO invested in Cannes has won the favor of Cannes. One of the heroines of the movie is Charlize Theron. The director’s approach is quite innovative. With the help of Peter Sellers’ reputation for acting like and so on, in order to highlight Peter Sellers’ very ego and selfish personality, he often uses himself as his father, mother, wife, etc. The technique reveals that he is good at justifying himself and ridiculing himself at such a complicated character in life.
In terms of photography and color, the pursuit of the soft light and extremely high saturation characteristics of the transitional rendering in the 1950s makes people feel that it is commendable for a TV series to be so refined. One of the passages touched me deeply: In order to show the four characters in "Doctor Strange Love" with different flavors, Peter Sellers pondered behind closed doors and repeatedly scrutinized his lines and intonations, almost driving himself crazy. Old actors, like those old actors in China before, take every line and action seriously, and people have to admire them.
