the life & death of peter sellers. it was so-so (an hbo movie). had its strong points but they fucking "symbolism" truly broke my nuts. what do i mean by this... hm... geoffrey rush playing peter sellers playing other characters in seller's life and "amending" history. very trite. also some dream sequences or whatever. fuck dream sequences. they are ok used sparingly and only when necessary but when used ham-handedly they are poor substitutes for a well-told story. like "this fantastic scene represents peter sellers dabbling with drugs". well fuck that shit. make the motherfucker get high, dont show him in sgt pepper costume with an animated background. fucks sakes...
