The Party

In this sidesplitting 1968 comedy, Peter Sellers stars as Hrundi V. Bakshi, an accident-prone Indian actor who gets invited to a lavish Hollywood dinner party by mistake. The evening descends into chaos as one mishap after another unfolds, with Bakshi's well-meaning but hapless attempts at fitting in causing more problems than solutions. With its loose structure and Sellers' improvisational genius, the film becomes a series of hilarious set pieces that showcase his comedic talents.
