Magic Christian, The

 

UK 1969, 89 minutes
Dir. Joseph McGrath
Rating: [R16]
Genres: Classics, Comedy / Black Comedy

Topics: Hippies & Psychedelia.

 

Aroview: From Terry Southern's novel, a wildly loopy satire about an eccentric multi-millionaire (Peter Sellers) who adopts a destitute son (Ringo Starr) and embarks on an odyssey of wastage.

The broadly farcical, barely coherent series of sketches culminate memorably with a 'money scramble' in a tank full of effluent. Ironic that both stars were filthy rich.
