The Millionairess (1960) is a loose adaptation of George Bernard Shaw’s Play of the same name. The film stars Sophia Loren and Peter Sellers and was hugely successful when it was released. The film was one of the top grossing films in Great Britain in 1960 and played well in Canada and the USA. A comedy duet between Loren and Sellers was a chart hit in the UK with top record sales and radio airplay. The song was conceived and produced by future Beatles producer George Martin.

While a white actor (Sellers) playing an Indian character would never happen today, the British-Indian culture in the 1960’s could not identify with the character either. Nevertheless, the film helped propel Sellers career from stand-up comedy to films.

This movie is posted here because of the extreme relevance to recent events. No copyright infringement is intended, but this flick is hard to find and may be out of print. 1969 was quite different for those of an unconventional sexual persuasion.

Don’t miss Malcolm’s flamenco-flamboyant omelette making starting at 29:50. Sadly, both Michael Greer (Malcolm) and Kevin Coughlin (Danny) are no longer with us, as are many of the other actors. Hey, time passes.

Is the movie stereotyped? Sure, but no more than any product out of Hollywood now or then. Do you think John Wayne really won the West? Watch this as a period piece and be glad things have changed so much in the last half-century.

YouTube seemed to have a problem with the “bitch” scene, and I had to post this without audio. However, years later, I was able to post the scene without censorship, here: https://youtu.be/kOZY7e5XN6s
