None they were all shit he was a shitty actor and a shitty person LOL. I do remember enjoying a film with him in but he wasn't the main star and he was quite funny but had no idea what sort of a person he was. If you don't want people to think bad of people maybe you shouldn't make negative videos about them LOL
On the DVD that showed the episode Jim Henson's son detailed what brought about that scene. Peter Sellers told Henson he had misgivings about doing the scene where the actors can just be themselves. He told him I just can't be myself, let me be Queen Victoria, and so they had him doing an imitation of Queen Victoria but forgetting what she looked like. On a side note the DVD also stated Sellers loved the Muppet Show and that Gonzo was his favorite character.
Steve Martin must have been desperate for money or lost in egomania to have taken on the role of the Inspector in the Pink Panther - Martin's performance was loathsome.
I think at some point someone as smart as Steve Martin realizes that his fans love him for his legacy work and shitty movies will die forgotten. So why not? It can work against you too, as Robert DiNiro has found out.
@@xs10tl1I hate that Robert DeNiro makes all these straight to video movies now like Nicolas Cage, and even Mel Gibson and Bruce Willis. Like why? They can't need the money that bad
Great video. That's Maud Adams in the "Man With The Golden Gun" James Bond clip. Britt Ekland was in the film too, but that's not her in that particular scene. Funny that Ringo Starr made an appearance - as he married Barbara Bach who played the female lead in the next James Bond film!
Recently started to read his son's book, can feel that there were problems in relations there also was no hature towards father. If those are real feelings, then Sellers was not constantly bad towards children. He actually supported son (at least financialy) till like 23? when he stopped filling like being loved only for money. Although when Sellers was at the hospital, his son found out, that dad did not even have his children photos (only parents one) in his belongings. Chaplin is a genious, but, according to his doughter and ex-wifes was a difficult man too. I think deeply he was not an evil, but had a lot of psychological issues. I think, really evil person would not be able to play adorable Chancy or Clouseau.
His Michael died on July 24th, 2006, at 52 years of age, exactly 26 years to the day his father Peter Sellers died. Coincidentally, both died of heart related disease.
2:35 - On the set of Casino Royal" Sellers and Orson Welles hated each other so much that they could not- or would not- work together. When that card game was filmed the actors' close-ups were shot on two separate days with the other playing to a double seen only from the back!
Peter was an interesting figure. Which is very ironic, since he claimed that he himself had no real personality outside characters, so without them, he would seem very boring. He was very troubled and many of his personal issues caused him to behave erratically and be very difficult. In summation, he was a needy manchild. But in spite of all this, he shouldn’t be branded as a monster. He was sick and should’ve gotten the help he needed. As much as I like the movie, the life and death of Peter sellers (I like how it was made, fourth walls, Peter morphing into his roles, etc.), the book and film try to paint him as evil.
everything in the movie is factually correct. i dont know what you expected, them making up stuff to make him look better? he was a toxic abusive person, but an amazing talent.
Inspector Clouseau were his best performances but he had some serious issues and putting your health issues aside to pursue your career was not a good move, inevitably ended badly. Poor soul.
It's strange to me that the video is talking about how abusive and psychotic he was, and left his children with barely anything. And the comments are talking about how great he was. What confuses me is that the legends of todays era get chastised from Hollywood for things they have written 10 years ago, and Peter Sellers just got more roles for his abuse.
It's pure speculation of course but if he'd been living today in the age of social media he'd have been finished - blacklisted - long ago. I suppose the moral of the story is that you do not have to be a nice person to be hugely talented and, God, was he talented.
It was a different time. Sellers had extraordinary talent but he had, at the very least, an extreme personality disorder and was quite possibly a psychopath. He was incredibly selfish and cruel but that doesn't alter the fact that he was a great entertainer. The audience didn't have to live with him.
It's amazing how this man's countenance changed over the years from a semi chubby face to looking lean and healthy. Then he would wear various eyeglasses alterring his look.
The adventures of Neddie Seagoon getting himself into trouble with the scams of Grytype and Moriarity, when bumping into Eccles, Bluebottle and Bloodnok always has me in tears of laughter.
It has been suggested that he left his children a symbolic amount as inheritance not only as an insult, but also to prevent them from contesting the will. The fact that they received something, rather than not a single penny, made it harder for them to contest the will from the legal standpoint.
Isn’t he lucky This Hollywood man And they say He’s so lucky He’s a star But he cry cry cries In his lonely heart thinking If there’s nothing Missing in my life Then why do these Tears come at night
I have reasons to believe that Peter Sellers suffered from full Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), thus explaining his lack of self identity, erratic behavior and high mood swings. I read a lot about it, and myself suffering from this disorder, I can safely say that.
@shannon dove it wasn’t good looking that’s a fact. If it was in any way remotely good looking then maybe I could understand these airheads falling for it!
Why everything have to be "tragic"? What´s next? Tragic Details About Kermit the Frog? Stop this nonsense. Put Interesting Details About Peter Sellers instead.
I don’t think this channel is about that ? Not denying the greatness of anyone he does videos about but I think it’s more about the troubling sides of these entertainers that the public usually doesn’t get to see.
Okay. Bob What's-his-name says this sort of thing, too--"I'm not there" etc. , leaving him "free" to populate his songs. We pretty much encourage this sort of entertainment as " genius." Tsk.
I was part of the Punk scene in L A....back in the late 70's n 80's n Peter Sellers daughter Victoria used to hang out with us...she wasn't really into it but always had money n wanted to party so we let her hang around n get us loaded.....
On the screen he was funnier and thus better than the rest of us. What is the purpose of this video to tell us in real life he was like the rest of us ?
So? Who is Peter Sellers? It's some name they gave to multiple men for excuses and alibis to explain why something went wrong. Peter Sellers is not a man, it's a concept!
Well, despite all the glamor, none of them live happily ever after. All these celebrity mini-bios end tragically, even if they die in their sleep, aged 96.
Peter might not have been the most handsome of men BUT he was definitely not ugly. In fact, he was actually quiet handsome in After the Fox and The World of Henry Orient. Like I said, he was no Clark Gable or James Dean...but he was far from being ugly. And in all honesty, he was extremely characteristic. Contrary to what this video says, the good side of his personality could be extremely alluring. In few times in his life when he was happy, he gave off an energy that was dynamic, engaging, and magnetizing. Especially to someone like Lynne Frederick (his last wife), who was always chasing after and looking for a father figure. She’s a case of a child who suffered paternal deprivation in her early years and then perused relationships with men old enough to be her father.
I don’t recall ever reading any about that in any of his biographies. However I do know that his daughter, Victoria, is a committed animal rights activist and a strict vegan.

What's your favorite Peter Sellers film?
None they were all shit he was a shitty actor and a shitty person LOL.

Dr. Strangelove!!
That famous film by Nabokov. Lolita
Any of The Pink Panther flicks.
Obviously Dr.Stangelove
"I cannot play myself because there is no me - I do not exist. There USED to be a "me," but I had him surgically removed!"
-- Peter Sellers
I remember him telling Kermit that.
On the DVD that showed the episode Jim Henson's son detailed what brought about that scene. Peter Sellers told Henson he had misgivings about doing the scene where the actors can just be themselves. He told him I just can't be myself, let me be Queen Victoria, and so they had him doing an imitation of Queen Victoria but forgetting what she looked like. On a side note the DVD also stated Sellers loved the Muppet Show and that Gonzo was his favorite character.
😂
I have always loved his characters. Probably my all time favorite of his Chance, a gardner, in Being There.
Same here.
Seems like all comedians have a darker side that only comes to light after they pass away. Still, I enjoyed his work.
Everyone who knew him was aware he was, in private, a monster. In public he was always performing.
Tony Hancock had a similar problem. Still a damn good comedian though, that will never change.
Peter Sellers was a comic genius but was a very Difficult man
I watched a documentary about him
Steve Martin must have been desperate for money or lost in egomania to have taken on the role of the Inspector in the Pink Panther - Martin's performance was loathsome.
I think at some point someone as smart as Steve Martin realizes that his fans love him for his legacy work and shitty movies will die forgotten. So why not?
It can work against you too, as Robert DiNiro has found out.
Oh it was horrible... Sellers owned that role. Who would play Doc Holiday after Val Kilmer??!!
That's why I didn't bother to watch it. Not even Beyonce could make me!
@@xs10tl1I hate that Robert DeNiro makes all these straight to video movies now like Nicolas Cage, and even Mel Gibson and Bruce Willis. Like why? They can't need the money that bad
Alan Arkin played Inspector Clouseau in 1968. But yeah Peter was the part. Just like the best Sherlock was done by the late Jeremy Brett.
Great video. That's Maud Adams in the "Man With The Golden Gun" James Bond clip. Britt Ekland was in the film too, but that's not her in that particular scene. Funny that Ringo Starr made an appearance - as he married Barbara Bach who played the female lead in the next James Bond film!
He played with Sellers in The Magic Christian

his performance in Lolita is astonishing
it is
Very interesting but leave that crap "music" out, very annoying❗❗
Thanks for making this interesting and informative video
What a troubled soul! How unsettling!
😂The Grudge always have on friendly music in the background while explaining tragic events........Hilarious
His Michael died on July 24th, 2006, at 52 years of age, exactly 26 years to the day his father Peter Sellers died. Coincidentally, both died of heart related disease.
Both were scheduled for open heart surgery.
😢

“In the garden, growth has it seasons. First comes spring and summer, but then we have fall and winter. And then we get spring and summer again.”
One of my favourite actors but like so many in Hollywood they have no real understanding of what love is.
Peter Sellers is one of my favs like Dudley Moore, Berges Meridith, Billy Bardy etc...
How many "faves" does it take to fill that 'void' in your life?....:>(
“The truth about the life of a man is not what he does, but the legend which he creates around himself.”
- Oscar Wilde
Why do these famous stars work so hard to make it to the big time. Then proceed to work even harder to destroy themselves?
They are all NUTS!!!
a means to the end
Because they are deeply disturbed in themselves, and the way they are acting out both privately and on film is a form of self therapy.
Because they serve the wrong god!
@@SomebodysGrandmother What luck there are more than one, because I don't believe your one is right either....

Sellars was a very complicated man, but the way he was demonized FOLLOWING his death I find sad

Very true and we'll said
It's amazing how this man's countenance changed over the years from a semi chubby face to looking lean and healthy. Then he would wear various eyeglasses alterring his look.
Peter sellers playing tony Clifton on taxi was priceless
I probably remember him best on the Goon show along with Spike Milligan and Harry Secom from the fifties. Still very funny today.
The adventures of Neddie Seagoon getting himself into trouble with the scams of Grytype and Moriarity, when bumping into Eccles, Bluebottle and Bloodnok always has me in tears of laughter.
No one could take the place of Peter Sellers!!!
My favorite Peter Sellers movie is when he interrogated the staff
It has been suggested that he left his children a symbolic amount as inheritance not only as an insult, but also to prevent them from contesting the will. The fact that they received something, rather than not a single penny, made it harder for them to contest the will from the legal standpoint.
10:11 RINGO STARR!!!!
That is a scene from The Magic Christian, a very funny and strange film.
Isn’t he lucky
This Hollywood man
And they say
He’s so lucky
He’s a star
But he cry cry cries
In his lonely heart thinking
If there’s nothing
Missing in my life
Then why do these
Tears come at night
Everyone fails and falls short, public figures just have there failure out and shot at for sport. Simple as that
Wow. That Brit Ekland is a looker.
His best performance was always in the Goon Show
The Goon Show to me, was the greatest comedy trio of guys that ever came together. The antics of Milligan, Secombe and Sellers is just the best.
@@quackaholicsanonymous7210 Don't forget Michael Bentine
He had a phobia of the color green.
"There's no me. I do not exist." Well Alan Watts would agree with that
I have reasons to believe that Peter Sellers suffered from full Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), thus explaining his lack of self identity, erratic behavior and high mood swings. I read a lot about it, and myself suffering from this disorder, I can safely say that.
I guess being a character actor has caught up with his reality
The women in it’s life must have been wearing beer goggles the whole time LMAO
@shannon dove it wasn’t good looking that’s a fact. If it was in any way remotely good looking then maybe I could understand these airheads falling for it!
Sad ending to such a talented and troubled man. Pity.
That scene with Roger Moore was not Ekland. That was the model/actress Maude Adams.
Being there"
His auto biography.
Wrong actress in Bond clip. Not Ekland.
Guy died a half dozen times.
Drugs and alcohol can give most people a weird and twisted personality full of psychotic mood swings. Been there, done that.
Woah !!

Maybe the reason the public doesn't see this side of actors is because we're not suppose to?
Seller's Jewish mother always called Ekland ( that Nazi what's got my son). She always had a psychological hold over her son.
Chancy. His most beautiful part.
He died at 12:28am not 6:28pm.
I love you Alice B. Tokeless

So sadly, the loss of himself, was apparently the price of his geniusl

Are there any celebs who DID'NT have (according to YOU) a 'tragic' life,end etc?
It's easy putting tragic views on people others don't understand.
But in reality, it's all speculations and rumours.
Well, despite all the glamor, none of them live happily ever after. All these celebrity mini-bios end tragically, even if they die in their sleep, aged 96.
nobody has a happy ending sadly
Para mí the party
A total nut. What an actor!
He should have stayed at the GOons type programme.
You can’t believe this crap …
Sad
☑️✅
It's the easy pese excuse for living! Oh oh oh!
Did he have M.I.s? Can never figure this out.
Do you know the difference between a male prostitute and the Pink Panther? Punchline: There is none, they are both Peter Sellers. LOL
He was a Narcissist pure and simple. All this excuse making is because of his ethnicity.💯
He wasn't even good looking, he sounds like one of the most undesirable men you could ever meet, who could want to be with THAT?!
Because he was extremely funny and extremely charming, and because he could seduce both women and the audience.
I agree! No amount of money or humor or anything else, could or can get me to be with anybody that is not attractive to me!
You shouldn't trust everything you hear.
And taste is personal. Your taste is most likely horrible to others.
Peter might not have been the most handsome of men BUT he was definitely not ugly. In fact, he was actually quiet handsome in After the Fox and The World of Henry Orient. Like I said, he was no Clark Gable or James Dean...but he was far from being ugly.
