I think we've all heard a song (or two or three...) that in some way reminds us of Peter, even though they aren't specifically about him. Anyone want to share...
Certainly through our communion with PS we in the U.S. or in other parts of Europe have all come to be more and more Anglophiles. PS' recordings alone are a...

THE OPTIMISTS aka THE OPTIMISTS OF NINE ELMS contains one of Peter's finest performances, part old English Music Hall, part a tribute to his own father. It...

Reading about it, (thanx for the info, Jason!), now I am even more sorry I have never seen "The Optimists". I suspect it must have been one of PS's finest...
Those pics are stellar and the story behind them even better. It would be great to ID all the guys and get their versions as well. And I love the phrase...

Hello Fiona! ... Wow! *sigh* I was very young when there were still drive-ins in the U.S. It would be fun to see those again. ... *sniffle* They don't know...
Nice to see the family expanding. :-) Welcome, welcome! Regarding books...I am always keen to read something more "professional" when it comes to film, and...
... I felt much the same way. Unfortunately, there is no truly professional book on just the films themselves as yet. :*o( Sincerely, Rori Member of the Peter...
Ed Sikov's book is worth reading because it puts everything and everyone into perspective, and Ed certainly did go watch the movies. I should also note that...
I recently read just about everything I could get my hands on - and finished my second take on Roger Lewis' book. Walker's book was interesting, due to his...
Out of curiosity, why does PSAS not recommend the Roger Lewis book? I am new here... ... everyone into perspective, and Ed certainly did go watch the movies. I...
Yes Jesse you are a new PSAS Member in full and welcome! Oh that would take too long of a thread, believe me. Dimitris' short answer has long been THE LIES AND...
I might also throw out that Sikov's book was the one I read immediately after my first shot at the Lewis book. It was exactly what I needed... a beautifully...
Yes, Charles Chaplin and Peter Sellers can and should be mentioned in the same sentence. But, their biopics? No. The Evans book was updated in the second half...
Thank you, Steve, for the share on "The lies and death..." book and film. You gave a concise oversight of the book that certainly made me wanna peak inside the...
Oh, and what about that last script? The romance...I guess it is owned by Peter Sellers Estate? Would it be possible to ever put it on screen? Though, I really...
I thought the score - and the film, visually, was great... WHAT'S NEW PUSSYCAT over the main titles was perfect, as was AFTER THE FOX during his big set battle...
ROMANCE OF THE PINK PANTHER... I thought the gags were great, much more inventive than in REVENGE... with some disguise bits that were priceless (including...
... immediately after my first shot at the Lewis book. ... and truthful story that gave equal share to Sellers' personal and professional life. It also...
Gosh, there was a stream of guffaws speaking for themselves as I read into your "treatment" of "The Romance...", Steve. How stupid must have been from me to...
Please, no slip of the tongue. One of the most pleasurable aspects of reading the script was imagining it as a movie... imagining how Peter Sellers would have...
Well said Jason. At least Rush was the actor because with anyone else it would have been a parody and more of an insult. There is nothing in the movie about...
