Film about Peter Sellers' rise from radio star to one of the world's top comic actors.

Biopic documenting Peter Sellers' turbulent rise from popular BBC radio performer to one of the world's most gifted comedic actors. Geoffrey Rush and Charlize Theron star.

Award-winning film documenting Peter Sellers' turbulent rise from popular BBC radio performer to one of the world's most gifted comedic actors. Peter 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 sense of self.
