The Life And Death Of Peter Sellers

Award-winning film documenting Peter Sellers' turbulent rise from popular BBC radio performer to one of the world's most gifted comedic actors. Peter, star of The Goon Show, was raised by a domineering mother and a meek father, and at an early age discovered he liked to hide behind the emotional curtain of playing a character. In time, Sellers put this skill to use as an actor, and discovered that he had a great gift for comedy, but increasingly realised he had no self. Geoffrey Rush stars as Sellers.
