A useful way to consider both the brilliance of Sellers and the damage he wrought, as well as demonstrating the ludicrous leeway granted to celebrities and the ways that obvious warning signs of possible mental illness often went unheeded. July 13, 2020 | Full Review…

Movie junkies, rejoice. Director Peter Medak has made an instructive and nightmarishly funny documentary about how actor Peter Sellers drove him crazy and nearly trashed his career. June 23, 2020 | Rating: 3.5/5 | Full Review…

In the grand tradition of "Jodoworsky's Dune" and "Lost in La Mancha," the lighthearted behind-the-scenes documentary recounts a tortuous production and the fascinating ways in which it went awry from every possible direction. June 23, 2020 | Rating: B | Full Review…

Neither bitter nor maudlin, "The Ghost of Peter Sellers" is a movie about filmmaking and soul-searching, a tale of two Peters and maybe the worst of times for both. June 23, 2020 | Full Review…

It's a revealing view of an industry of enormous personalities-and the indulgences that feed them. May 26, 2020 | Full Review…

Because the documentary omits that Ghost in the Noonday Sun was released (just not in cinemas, as [Peter] Medak had hoped) ... it's just another example of how Medak has a 'poor me' attitude that is unrelenting and ultimately very annoying. July 23, 2020 | Full Review…

Here director Peter Medek pulls back the curtains on the behind the scenes of why his film with such a talent was a disaster. The short answer would be the man himself, Peter Sellers, and the fact that he was a first class ass. July 13, 2020 | Rating: 3.5/5 | Full Review…

One hopes Medak found some sort of closure here. The whole enterprise does suggest some sort of expensive public therapy session for which we, the audience, have helped pay for. But you can't help but like Medak... July 13, 2020 | Full Review…

It's a really interesting spin on that subgenre of documentary about films that never got made... Because it's being directed by the person who tried to make the original movie, it adds an interesting layer. July 9, 2020 | Full Review…

Ghost Of Peter Sellers is replete with the magic it might have had. Whimsical and agonised, tragic and hilarious, it's a must-see warning for all would-be filmmakers and a poignant portrait of a moment in film history. June 29, 2020 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…
