I didn’t realize Sellers played all 3 leads until after the movie, and that realization was dumbfounding.

Also didn’t realize I was watching a dark comedy until about halfway in

This is great and is reminiscent of the Bene Gesserit Litany Against Fear from the Dune universe. Another great example of blending a high-stakes in media res moment to set the stage!

Wow, you're completely right Tai. Now that you mention it, it does resemble the style and tone, and I love that Litany. And now that I think about it, Dune and this movie were published almost on the same year, probably Kubrick and Hebert were mutual influence of each other without knowing it.

Thank you for your thoughtful comment and so glad you enjoyed it!!
