Interesting! It didn’t bother me. I took the film as one piece and the outtakes as another. I didn’t find that they interfered with one another. Peter Sellers was such a fabulous comic actor that they were both enjoyable.
It’s too bad Sellers wasn’t in more really good movies. I did like the Pink Panther movies (the earlier ones were the best), but he was in some real stinkers.
One of my best memories is an interview with Sellers on NPR, when the interviewer asked him what his real accent was. He had a lot of trouble providing an example.
