   Feb 16, 2018 · The first must-see movie of 2018. Sally Potter is a filmmaker who deserves to be more decisively seen and heard. I’m not one for avidly going to bat for socially-purposeful art, but I dare say that Potter, whose films have long addressed gender identity, political commitment, feminism, capitalism, and other concerns is absolutely, in the parlance of the times, one of the Filmmakers We Need Now.

   Peter Sellers is back at work again. Perhaps nostalgia is in order. Until a few years ago, Sellers was the funniest comedian in the movies. He turned out a series of splendid British comedies (now inhabiting the late show), and even after he got to Hollywood he stayed funny. "The Pink Panther" (1963) was good and "Dr. Strangelove" was great and "What's New, Pussycat" had its moments.

   Is 'the party' a good movie?

   • Written and directed by Sally Potter, who has made other movies worth seeing — “Thriller,” “Orlando,” “ Ginger & Rosa ” — “The Party” is a brittle, unfunny attempt at comedy that features some very fine actors and a lot of empty chatter. It takes place inside a few rooms on the ground-level floor of Bill and Janet’s comfortable London digs.

   Does 'the party' ever stop being funny?

   • As serious as things get, “The Party” never stops being funny, sometimes terribly so. “I believe in truth and reconciliation. Truth and reconciliation” says a broken-down Janet near the end, right before biting into her own wrist.

   • Kristin Scott Thomas as Janet in Sally Potter’s movie “The Party.” Nicola Dove/Roadside Attractions Timothy Spall looks so defeated in “The Party” it’s a wonder he isn’t waving a white flag.

   The Party is essentially Edwards’ baffled reaction—common to square-but-desperate-to-seem-hip society in the ’60s—to almost the whole of the social order being tossed into a blender. It takes the sophisticated, ’50s-inflected chaos of the party scene in Breakfast at Tiffany ’s —a milieu he knew well—and wonders what would happen if that anarchy-within-bounds were allowed to ...
