Mr. Topaze - Trailer
Restored Classics • 58s
Honest French teacher Albert Topaze (Peter Sellers) falls prey to corrupt city official Castel Benac (Herbert Lom), who uses him as a front for one of his shady businesses. But Topaze gets the last laugh when he beats Benac at his own game.
Long considered a “lost” classic, Sellers' lone feature-length directorial effort shows the British comedic genius at the peak of his powers.
