The Mouse that roared

The near-bankrupt Duchy of Grand Fenwick plans to declare war on the USA, be defeated and thus be eligible for Marshall Aid to rebuild its economy. One of those films in which Peter Sellers engagingly plays three parts, effectively carrying the entire film. Based on the novel by Leonard Wibberley.
