THE PRISONER OF ZENDA, directed by Richard Quine screenplay by Dick Clement and Ian La Frenais, based on the novel by Anthony Hope as dramatized by Edward Rose music by Henry Mancini director of photography, Arthur Ibbetson edited by Byron (Buzz) Brandt produced by Walter Mirisch released by Universal Pictures. It contains minimal violence and a subplot that involves marital infidelity.
Seller's artfully schhizoid company."The Prisoner of Zenda" is rated PG ("Parental Guidance Suggested"). But the slack moments are painless enough, and they come as a fair exchange for the pleasure of Mr.
He performs a perfect balancing act, orchestrated so well that the funny character makes the serious one even more effective, and vice versa."The Prisoner of Zenda" doesn't have the kind of finesse that Blake Edwards's direction has given the "Pink Panther" series. Sellers is onscreen with himself surprisingly often, and the effect never looks trumped-up. Sellers and Catherine Schell wind up trading chicken calls with several sets of villains and one authentic owl.Mr. There is a hackneyed jealous-husband routine that works better than it ought to, and one swashbuckler's entire speaking part seems to consists of hearty ha-ha-ha's. (Her country's economy depends on the Ruritanian potato supply.) Complications ensue, and so do some intermittent but genuinely funny gags. The Cockney falls in love with the real King's fiancée (Lynne Frederick), who hates the real King but must marry him. Sellers's superb speech defects, and a Cockney cab-driver who is absolutely deadpan.For anyone unfamiliar with the first several-screen versions of "The Prisoner of Zenda," or even with the book, these two lookalikes are forced by considerations of Ruritanian politics to chance places. (The cork punctures the fabric, of course.) Then he becomes both the King of Ruritania, who behaves like a marvelously effete English playboy with yet another of Mr. Sellers plays a third fellow who dies after uncorking a bottle of champagne while riding in a hot air balloon. And the serious performance is, in many ways, the more remarkable of the two.Actually, "two" isn't accurate - for a few brief moments at the film's opening, Mr. Sellers is dividing his energies between a serious character and a funny one. Sellers appears, playing either one of the two characters he tackles here, the film really does come to life, and not simply for its humor. The film that has been constructed around him has its share of dead air, and every time the emphasis turns to derring-do, the director, Richard Quine, seems well over his head. But as reasons go, Peter Sellers is an awfully good one. PETER SELLERS is the only real reason to see "The Prisoner of Zenda," which opens today in a new, comic version at the Ziegfeld Theater.
