Watching this movie with my son on THIS TV. Is it just me or is the Peter Sellers character a lot like Rowan Atkinson's Mr. Bean character?

And all three owe a nod to Buster Keaton.

No, both Mr. Bean and Bakshi were inspired by the same comic actor, Jacques Tati.

I definitely get a Bakshi vibe from the character of Bean. Although I had heard that Jacques Tati was a major influence on Rowan Atkinson, I didn't realize until I saw "The Party" that Peter Sellers had to have been an early inspiration as well.

More like both of them are like Jacques Tati's Monsieur Hulot's character

I know right? When I saw Bakshi trying to dry off the painting in the bathroom, it reminded me of the first Mr. Bean movie which was basically about wiping a painting.
