the world of henry orient
the world of henry orient is without a doubt an amazing film and one of my favorites. the actors themselves are amazing, but most of all when you see peter sellers acting a bit crazy, that's one of the things that makes the film spectacular. he plays a sleazy musician who has a weakness for married women, so it seems he's always saying things like "exactly where is your husband right now?" the main characters are two girls, one of them from a wealthy family, but she has to see a psychiatrist. the other girl is her best friend and from a more loving and conventional family. the two of them "go adventuring" and role play a lot of different characters in public, narrowly avoiding serious trouble with the law, but end up starting a cult that essentially worships henry orient, the sleazy second rate musician who is loved from afar by the wealthy girl. the film explores a lot of issues, such as removing the stigma from having to see a psychiatrist at a young age (the girls i would guess are about 15 years old, maybe a little younger.) yes, this is an amazing film and i would recommend it to any film lover or lover of peter sellers films.
