The Bacharach score and Herb Alpert open and closing sequences are memorable. Allen is always funny, and Welles does a pretty good turn as le Chiffre.

When Andress is not speaking, as in the 'Look of Love' sequence or in Seller's 'shampoo' dream she's truly breathtaking. Peter Sellers: Evelyn Tremble/James Bond/007 Ursula Andress: Vesper Lynd/007 David Niven: Sir James Bond Orson Welles: Le Chiffre Joanna Pettet: Mata Bond. Like _What's New Pussycat_ they did manage to corral some of the most beautiful women of the time together in the same film. The film is certainly not without its merits. When they run out of story, pie fights emerge, or fusillades of bullets, or tremendous explosions. The story lacks even a real protagonist Niven and Sellers trade places in that role. It seems impossible to create a successful film with 5 directors and 10 writers (not including Ian Fleming, but including Ben Hecht, Joseph Heller, Terry Southern and Billy Wilder !!). However, _Casino_ is simply over the top at being over the top. What's New, Pussycat (1965) - (Movie Clip) You Are Serious Adulterer Tom Jones with the hit title tune by Burt Bacharach and Hal David over the gaudy credits, and an opening scene that sounds like a surviving piece of Woody Allen’s original screenplay, Peter Sellers as shrink Fassbender, at war with his burly wife (Eddra Gale), opening What’s New, Pussycat, 1965. So I am sucker for the comedy epic/ celebrity ensemble. I should confess that as a young kid I did love the film, just as I loved _What's new Pussycat_, and when I got a little older I became a guilty admirer of _The Blues Brothers_ and _1941_. Occasional fun for the 60's lover, but completely incoherent as entertainment.
