MAN IN A COCKED HAT (AKA CARLTON-BROWNE OF THE FO)

2025 HD Master - From a 4K Scan of the 35mm Original Camera Negative! Man in a Cocked Hat (a.k.a. Carlton-Browne of the F.O.) is a classic Cold War satire from the Boulting Brothers (I'm All Right Jack, Heavens Above!) featuring an uproarious Peter Sellers (The Ladykillers) performance. When valuable mineral deposits are discovered on the forgotten British colony of Gaillardia, the Foreign Office sends bumbling envoy Cadogan de Vere Carlton-Browne (Terry-Thomas, It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World) to investigate. But while negotiating with their gleefully corrupt Prime Minister Amphibulos (Sellers), Carlton-Browne is convinced to split the tiny island in half, sparking a revolution that leads to an international nuclear showdown with the Russians. Can the Empire's most disastrous diplomat now restore relations before the Cold War comes to a boil?
