7/10
In the orient or occident, this is quite a movie.
2 July 2005
The same year that Peter Sellers starred in "Dr. Strangelove", he starred in "The World of Henry Orient", in which he played a pianist pursued by two girls. They're not stalkers, but rather two teenyboppers who have the hots for him. Unfortunately for everyone, Henry is having an affair with Stella Dunnworthy (Paula Prentiss), and believes that the girls have been sent to spy on him. Naturally, things get more and more complicated from there.

This movie is, in some way, one of those movies that you see many years later and it looks totally different. It's not just that the "Murder, She Wrote" woman plays the mother of one of the girls; in this case, the future Howard Cunningham plays the father, and the "Munsters" grandpa also appears. In any case, it's an interesting movie.
