I Could Do Without Any Of Them

Beautiful, wealthy Joan Collins is shipwrecked on a desert island with pompous professor Robertson Hare, Irish stoker Kenneth More, and journalist George Cole. All three men go gaga for Miss Collins and fight among themselves.

It's a purely mechanical comedy with all three men offering various stereotypes, and Miss Collins somehow never dirtying or damaging her one dress. I quickly grew tired of their bickering, and even of Peter Sellers, who is present if not in the flesh, at least in the voice as the voice of the parrot -- actually a cockatoo.

It's written and directed by Noel Langley from a novel by Norman Lindsay. Langley is best remembered as one of the writers of 1939's The Wizard of Oz. He died in 1980 at the age of 68.
