Thanos Karagioras "The Party" is simply a hilarious movie which is still can be considered funny even if is 50 years old. In this movie we have an Indian actor who makes a disastrous mistake and destroys a whole set of a movie, after that the director of it wants to take revenge by eliminating his options of getting another movie but makes a tremendous mistake by inviting him to his own party.I really enjoyed this movie and I had a great time. Peter Sellers who plays as Hrundi V. Bakshi makes another hilarious performance, his interpretation is just amazing. I have to mention that I also liked the interpretation of Steve Franken who plays as Levinson (the waiter) and he is simply amazing too. Another good interpretation is made by Claudine Longet who plays as Michele Monet a young woman who wants to be a successful actress. All the credits about this have to go to Blake Edwards who was responsible for the direction of it and obviously he did a great job at it.Finally I would like to mention that "The Party" is a very good movie which I believe everyone has to watch because I am sure that you will laugh a lot. I strongly recommend it to everyone, just watch it.
adonis98-743-186503 A clerical mistake results in a bumbling Indian film star being invited to an exclusive Hollywood party instead of being fired. Blake Edward's The Party is an insane and hilarious comedy that benefits from Peter Seller's incredible comedic talent. The jokes are amazing and hit the floor and made me laugh so much also the actor who plays the waiter was amazing and steals the show sometimes even from Sellers himself. (10/10)
paul perlstone (paul-1094) I have watched this movie many times and find new things the laugh at every time, Peter was great and the drunk waiter was just as good, He all most steals the show with his antics and he get a drunk woman in the end. I would love to own his three wheel Morgan. Oh and what a house all the mid sixty items are worth a fortune now, Have a few drinks and watch it. The house is a remote control dream from a bar that slides away to a pool that covers up with a walk way. From the start you have a crazy guy that wont die to blowing up a fort in the desert while doing up his sandal.the Russian get in the act with vodka flowing, watch out of the elephant in the room
NateWatchesCoolMovies Blake Edward's The Party is to this day still one of the funniest situational screwball comedies on record. Peter Sellers is a one man wrecking ball of bumbling tomfoolery to rival Mr. Bean. He plays Hrundi V. Bakshi a, hapless, lovable fool of an east Indian actor, whos thrown off a big budget set for accidentally causing literally the biggest screw up that could have happened. By an egregious error, his name later ends up on a guest list to the swankiest party in the Hollywood hills, where anyone who's anyone will be there, and on man who's no one, but is infamously the life (and cataclysmic destruction) of the party by its end. Edwards toys with us, gradually unveiling simple awkwardness as our sweet shy hero tries painfully to make friends with the horde of snobs and snakes also in attendance. Soon the mistakes and slapstick energy ramp up and thanks to Hrundi, the party becomes a riotous madhouse of busted water fountains, drunken waiters, pratfalls, madcap silliness, and the obligatory sleazeball producer trying to get a wannabe actress (Claudine Longet) all up in the casting couch. Hrundi shows shows a fondness for her when they meet, and the two of them are quite endearing together, providing some nicely paced moments among the momentous lunacy. Sellers, a brit known for bumbling elsewhere as Inspector Clouseau, nails the hilarious East Indian accent, and creates a wonderful character that carries the film on its comic highs, while never never getting too far fetched or hammy. This one's a slice of comedy gold, with an innocence to its protagonist, and a delirious, inmates running the asylum vibe that provides endless laughs. Birdy num nums forever.
