Review of The Magic Christian (1969) by Daniel B — 30 Jul 2013
A billionaire (Peter Sellers) adopts a bum (Ringo Starr) and uses his fortune to pull outrageous pranks designed to show how far people will debase themselves for money. The satire is so scattershot that it only hits the most obvious targets, but the gags get good in the last manic half hour, when amusing cameos from Christopher Lee, Raquel Welch and Yul Brynner liven things up.
