Undercovers Hero (1974)
Welcome to another episode of “The Peter Sellers Show” in which he plays six different roles with different disguises and accents. There’s the Gestapo interrogator, the English underground rebellion leader, the elderly brothel customer, the President of France, the Fuhrer himself, and the Japanese officer who gets aroused by nuns. He also provides the quirky American voice who narrates the movie! Way below in the supporting cast, you’ll see Lila Kedrova as the brothel’s madam and Curd Jurgens as an old client of hers.
But this is pretty much all for Peter fans and not really for anyone else. It’s a 1970s war satire that’s a far cry from To Be or Not To Be. All tongue-in-cheek, the plot revolves around a bunch of prostitutes going undercover to help fight the Nazis. There are a lot of sex jokes, a lot of bathroom jokes, and not much else. I did laugh quite a bit, though, when the Nazi Peter character mentioned that before the war he was a tax inspector. His costar chuckled that it was a very different type of work from what he now does in the Gestapo. “Not the way I do it,” he remarked dryly. Check it out if you want, but don’t expect too much from it.
