New clue- In the film, one of the actors the question is about performs a few magic tricks, while the 2 actors( again the stand-ins and 1 of the actors) are sitting across from each other at the table

 

Repeat of clues posted

 

1960's comedy

well known film

Takes place in Europe

1 actor known for brilliant comedic performances (question is about him)

1 actor also known for directing, writing producing (question about him)

1 was British 1 was American

Great music score ( some big hits)

A lot of cameo performances

the scene has them sitting across from each other at a table

 

Question is 2 actors in this film hated each other, so much so that stand-ins replaced them for the scenes that the 2 were in together and filmed on different days, so they didn't have to see each other

Name the 2 actors and this film ???

Thank You, Miles. Knew the magician clue would finally nail this one. Try to make these questions not too challenging, but not give it away either.

Here's the reported story

 

Princess Margaret visted the set, Sellers who knew her greeted her in a grand manner so that everyone would notice. She walked right by him went over to Welles and made a big fuss over Welles. Sellers stormed off the set and refused to work with Welles again. It's also been suggested that Welles was insistent about doing his magic tricks during their scene together and Sellers objected and that was part of the reason for the rift between them. In the scene that they were suppose to be together at the gambling table, stand-ins were hired. The scenes were shot on different days a stand-in each time on those days so Sellers and Welles did not see each other.

 

The *Casino Royale* theme and *The Look of Love* the Bachrach/David songs were huge hits as everyone probably recalls.

 

So yes,the *1967* film *Casino Royale* is the film and Peter Sellers and Orson Welles are the 2 . Thanks again Miles for sticking with it ;)

Ask them! LOL As it happens Sellers recommended Welles for the part, the point was that, that incident on the set of *Casino Royale* is what caused their not getting along. Whether they crossed paths before how would I know? That has nothing to do with the question I posed here, which by the way since you're the self proclaimed musical guy , how did you not recgnize the answser by the clue of a great music score with Big hits? didn't see you even venture a guess.

 

Miles, it's still your thread

I'm actually kind of entertained with the back and forth between you two on these boards. It's very similar to an old radio show with Don Ameche and Frances Langford called "The Bickersons". However, if we must move on, here is a new question.

 

Gene Kelly danced in a movie with his brother. What was the movie and what was the name of the song that they danced to?
