WHAT THE STUDIO WANTS YOU TO KNOW

DESCRIPTION:

    Peter Sellers portrays Sir Guy Grand, the richest man in the world, who happens upon a young orphan in the park (Ringo Starr) and, on a whim, decides to adopt him.
    Together they set off on a series of madcap escapades, discovering along the way that money will buy anyone, anything their happy-go-lucky hearts desire.
    Highlighting the film is Paul McCartney's hit song Come And Get It and the Monty Python regulars who polish it off with their own quirky brand of hilarity.
