Review: Some may find his portrayal of an Indian in The Party offensive. Some may say it's not politically correct. I am an Indian (UK born though). Speaking from an Indians point of view , and having shared viewing of this movie with family and people of other ethnic backgrounds I can honestly say this has to be the best amalgamation of typical Indian traits I have ever had the pleasure of watching. I have met so many people with parts of the quirks and ingrained politeness that Sellers so accurately put together. I watch the movie and at least one person watching with me can say that is so like someone they know. It really is genius! Watch this movie. If you're Indian I would recommend it even more. Take it as it's meant - fun! Fave bits: the scene when he is too polite to excuse himself to go to the bathroom while a pretty lady sings for the crowd. The bird cage bit and how he manages to bungle things up and still manages to....well that would be telling now! Enjoy |
