Plot Summary:
|
The virtuoso and personal lifestyle of actor and wit Peter Sellers was a turbulent one. His early talking picture fame was based chiefly on his funny characterizations, often of bumbling and foreign-accented persons, characters which he embodied. As his movie fame rose, he began to lose his own dear identity to his movie characters, leading to self-doubt of himself as a person and a uniform necessary for reassurance and acceptance of his guide. This self-suspect manifested itself in fits of vexation and what was deemed as bluster by scads. In turn, his personal relationships began to deterior... ate as his characterizations were continually acclimatized to show his problems. His foremost wife, Anne Howe, left/divorced him and his relationships with his parents and children became increasingly distant. His relationship with his second-best wife, Swedish actress Britt Ekland, was based on this mask. In his later life, he tried to rediscover himself and his vocation with what would become his penultimate covering task, that of Wager in Being There (1979).
