Wissenswertes
Peter Cook's wife, Wendy was nine months pregnant when filming began. Producer and director Bryan Forbes promised them that he would let Peter leave the set as soon as Wendy went into labor. He kept his word, and Peter made it to the hospital just in time for the birth of his daughter, Daisy. Forbes, Dudley Moore, Sir Michael Caine, and Peter Sellers filled his dressing room with flowers and champagne, in celebration of Daisy's birth, when he returned to work.

Just before the train crash you can see the smoke and steam going back into the engines, signifying the trains were in reverse and the film played backwards.

See it for Peacock

There are many reasons to enjoy this film. It is a catalogue of English comic and serious actors, Peter Cook and Dudley Moore not the least among them. But this show belongs to the bit players. Wilfrid Lawson as Peacock is superb. I hope he garnered enough attention from this role to cap off his career. Bit and character players are a special breed.

The film is vaguely psychedelic. The art nouveau lettering on title cards fits in with the Haight Ashbury tone of the times. The plot is solid and humorous throughout yet it depends on the basic slapstick for its conclusion.

Well-written, well-acted, well-directed, well-conceived. A treat.
