"Being There" plays against almost every type imaginable for American film comedy. Granted. Off-putting, even, for some. Check some of the reviews posted here for proof of that. No, these are not Keystone Kops visual gags; and neither is this a comedy in which the central character is the kind of dimwad one instantly grasps in totality as one would in any Bill & Ted, Ashton Kutcher, or Chris Farley farce. One might suggest that the only parallel to Sellers' demure performance is that of Tom Hanks in "Forrest Gump." But that's not correct. Where "Gump" is a cheezy, high-budget form of sappy audience manipulation, "Being There" is a gorgeous, pure form of allegory.
