The premise of the World of Henry Orient and it's satire of fan worship gone amok is a good one. Throw in a little paranoia and some psychoanalysis humour and this could have been great. Unfortunately there just isn't enough (in his prime no less) Peter Sellers in the title role of a mediocre but gloriously vain concert pianist. Too much emphasis of the film is dominated by his teenage girl worshippers who are frankly not that interesting and quickly becoming annoying. Too bad, because the rest of the cast are great. Including one of my favourite comedic actresses Paula Prentiss and a sexy dominatrix style Angela Lansbury. Tom Bosley is also on board as well Richie's father from Happy Days. Not bad but disappointing.
