What The Party Is About
Blake Edwards's 1968 film follows an actor invited by mistake to a studio executive's party. He had ruined a shoot. At the house he wrecks everything. The film rests almost entirely on improvisation; the narrative accumulates physical comedy across one night. Peter Sellers leads. The screenplay ran only a few pages. Casting a white actor in dark makeup as an Indian character is now plainly recognised as racist. Who it's for: those studying classic physical comedy. Who it's not for: viewers who cannot set that racist portrayal aside; the whole premise rests on it.
