  Simple-minded gardener Chance (Peter Sellers) is suddenly placed in the real world instead of the television world through which he has experienced life. When asked for political and financial advice, his naive answers are mistaken for insightful, intelligent answers. Melvyn Douglas won an Oscar as Best Supporting Actor in his role as a political kingmaker and Peter Sellers was nominated for Best Actor.
