In this classic satire, the Duchess and the Prime Minister of the tiny Duchy of Grand Fenwick (both played by Peter Sellers) have come up with a brilliant plan to keep their country from going broke - make war on the United States, lose, then collect lots of American post-war aid. The only mistake is not telling their invasion force leader (Sellers again, in chain mail!) that he's supposed to lose. Sellers lands in New York during an air raid drill and finds the streets empty. He then proceeds to capture a brilliant scientist (David Kossoff), his assistant (Jean Seberg) and his awesome new weapon. The U.S. is forced to surrender! Grand Fenwick then forms the League of Little Nations which presents the big nations with its terms - peace forever...
