Où regarder Bienvenue, Mister Chance
- Todd Dale-18 hA cinematic masterpiece - You take Hal Ashby, Peter Sellers. Shirley MacLaine and Melvyn Douglas. Give them a film that serves as a poignant critique of media culture, celebrity, and political elite blind spots? The reality of the film more truth today in 2026 then in 1980. This is a movie that shows more about us, then Chance. A "bucket list" of cinema flim. Peter Sellers is a Masterclass in subtlety of showing us "Chauncey Gardiner"
- Mister Arn14 mai 2025There are two things going on in this film, silly humor and deep thinking. So you can laugh at the line, "I like to watch", then contemplate the meaning of the last line "life is a state of mind" as it relates to walking on water. This idea of deeper meaning might also all be part of the joke, enjoy the movie, I did.
- Rowan Krzysiak23 mars 2025It's one of the most tonally bizarre films I've ever seen flipping seamlessly between New Hollywood grit and Home Alone schlock. As a result it's both frustrating and intriguing. Ultimately though it's an extremely interesting conversation peice and recommended from that point of view.
- Desmond Dale24 janvier 2025The writing is so nuanced and full of layers that unfold like a life mantra hidden in the margins of a comic strip. Peter Sellers is magical, playing a character who appears naive and dumb and yet possesses a youthful optimistic worldview. He seems to have retained a sense of wonder and amazement that most lose in the transition to adulthood. The writing is so tight that at times you can't tell if maybe the character is actually aware of his genius or if he's simply the world's greatest dunce. And it's unafraid to utilize its folklorish character to poke fun at racism, classism and the injustices that come from living in such an oligarchy. And as a result it comes away feeling both sentimental and upbeat and socially aware.
- gmrxbox15 octobre 2024One of Peter Sellers' last roles, Being There chronicles a simple-minded gardener who, through a series of coincidences and misunderstandings, climbs to the top of the Washington elite. Now, in the wrong hands, this idea could be an absolute disaster. But here, Sellers is able to play it straight at every turn, funny at times, heartfelt at times, weaving the perfect balance (Think of the straight-faced naivety of Steve Martin in The Jerk, and you've got something close).

Un jardinier quinquagénaire prénommé Chance, homme naïf et simple, coule une vie sans heurts à prendre soin du jardin d'une calme propriété de Washington. Il vit quasiment retiré du monde, ne sort jamais, n'est jamais monté dans une automobile et sa seule distraction est la télévision, qu'il contemple avec assiduité et fascination. Obligé de quitter cette maison et cette activité à la suite du décès de son employeur, Chance est heurté, dans la rue, par un véhicule dont la propriétaire, Eve Rand, l'accueille à son domicile pour lui faire prodiguer des soins. Chance se lie avec Benjamin Rand, le mari, qui, peu après, reçoit la visite du président des États-Unis. Chance prend part à l'entretien et ce avec un tel naturel que ses phrases, distillées comme des proverbes de sagesse mais, en réalité, orientées jardinage, vont être prises pour de véritables oracles. Il va ainsi devenir la coqueluche du pouvoir et des médias.
