Review
Featuring the films: 'Hoffman', 'The Smallest Show On Earth', 'Carlton-Browne Of The F.O.' and 'Two Way Stretch'.
Hoffman *(WS 1.85:1 Anamorphic, 1970, 1 hour and 47 Minutes, Colour):
Peter Sellers is Hoffman, a middle aged misfit who blackmails his young attractive secretary into spending a week with him. Although he behaves like a creep throughout the weekend, he actually emerges as a sympathetic character in the end.
Two Way Stretch *(FS, 1960, 1 hour and 23 minutes, B&W):
While in prison, Peter Sellers has planned the perfect robbery. He intends to break out, steal a fortune in diamonds, and then break back into prison without anyone noticing he has been absent. With only a few days left of his sentence, and a perfect alibi - what could possibly go wrong?
Carlton-Browne Of The F.O. *(FS, 1959, 1 hour and 26 minutes, B&W):
Peter Sellers is Amphibulos, the corrupt Prime Minister of a small Pacific Island who hopes to profit from renewed interest in the Island from the British in the wake of the death of the Island's King and the rumour of valuable mineral deposits being found on the island. Carlton Browne (Terry Thomas) is the hapless man from the Foreign Office sent to re-establish friendly relations with the idealistic heir to the throne (Ian Bannen).
The Smallest Show On Earth *(FS, 1957, 1 hour and 16 minutes, B&W):
Jean and Bill are a married couple trying to scrape together a living. Out of the blue they receive a telegram informing them that Bill's long-lost uncle has died and left them his business - a cinema in the town of Sloughborough. They expect to sell the cinema to gain a huge inheritance, however, when they get there they discover the cinema is falling apart and is run by three equally run-down attendants (Peter Sellers, Margaret Rutherford and Bernard Miles) who seem to have worked there forever.
