A simpleminded, sheltered gardener becomes an unlikely trusted advisor to a powerful businessman and an insider in Washington politics.
From memory: Excellent oddball satire on American life and politics with lots of witty dialogie, and Sellers' and MacLaine's performances are spot on.
Halliwel**: "Overlong serio-comic parable hinging on a somewhat dubious star performance. Chance made it a popular urban success, but few who saw it were enthused."
Maltin**1/2: "Low-keyed black humor, full of savagely witty comments on American life in the telvision age, but fatally overlong."
