I Love You, Alice B. Toklas! (1968)
Director: Hy Averback
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Dispiritingly trendy comedy, co-scripted by Paul Mazursky, in which Sellers briefly sketches a brilliant performance as a middle-aged lawyer tormented by asthma, by a mistress intent on being a wife, and by a car with parking problems. When everyone begins romping around under the influence of marijuana cookies, Sellers becomes a long-haired dropout, and one can only cringe in embarrassment.Author: TM
