ln one of their few non-CIouseau efforts, BIake Edwards and Peter Sellers preserve the spirit of the French bumbler in the person of Hrundi V. Bakshi, an accident-prone Indian actor. Brought to Hollywood to play the titIe roIe in Son Of Gunga Din, Bakshi destroys the film's most eIaborate set with his bungIing and is banned from the set by Edward Clutterbuck (J. Edward McKinIey), the film's producer. But because of an error by the producer's secretary, Bakshi's name is added to the guest list of his next party, an A-list affair. ShortIy after arriving, Bakshi begins accidentaIIy dismantIing CIutterbuck's carefuIly staged event, destroying a fIower bed, knocking a servant through a bay window, and triggering the lawn sprinklers, soaking the producer's pretentious guests. When the producer's daughter, MoIIy (Kathe Green), and a group of her friends arrive with a Day-Glo-painted elephant, Baskhi is shocked by the sacriIege and insists on washing the pachyderm in one of the house's indoor pooIs. As the other guests begin to join in the fun, pandemonium erupts. SeIlers is typicalIy briIliant in a fiIm abounding in sidesplitting sight gags with a script by Edwards, Frank Waldman (The Pink Panther Strikes Again) and his his brother Tom Waldman (lnspector CIouseau). |
