TWA - "A taste of Europe, flying in the USA" (#2)

[MEATYOKERRable]

Peter Sellers.... great actor.... bad directing.

[JetRanger0007]

I can see whay they went out of Business with Stupid disasterous commercials like this, boy, those in Corporate really are stupid for approving shit like this and paying for it even !!

[doncorleoneug100]

hahahahahaha..why we dont have a commersials like this any more???

[pswallace]

Peter Sellers was brilliant!

Purtroppo molti di noi Americani (non io stesso) pensano che gli italiani siano gli stessi in realtà come siano ritratti sulla TV e sui film.

For those who don't read Italian, I said Many of us Americans think that Italian people are the same way on and off the screen. (stereotypes)

[Theysee35]

Peter Sellers just mimicked perfectly a Romantic italian (haha)he's all around.

[wexfaron]

I hate fucking american airlines

[murrmu]

@wexfaron well, stop fucking them!

[R160A]

0:38 And romantic foreign films, just like Europe. -Hand comes down- hehehe

[seanlee747]

mi scussi!

[willyboi708]

Great commercial!!

[intrepidlikes]

At 0:38, is that a young Teri Garr?

[PeerlessPaavo]

That is, indeed.

[Concordelover]

great commercial!! but whats up with the lady at 0:35???

[scaremenga]

@Concordelover uhhhh!!

[mcd527]

Take a close look -- I think that's Teri Garr, both at the 37 second mark (watching the movie) and as the stewardess walking past at the 50-51 second mark.

Great commercials - thanks for posting. I just wish someone had the TWA commercial that showed a passenger racing to the baggage claim and the luggage beats him there. Now THAT is a comment on flying today.

[georger64]

Yes, that's her! But don't expect teenagers to know who she is...

[maricosu]

Thanks Mr Sellers for perpetuating stereotypes about Italians...

[georger64]

Oh, get over yourself. I've had it up to here (insert gesture) with all this political correctness...

[maricosu]

No problem, Nazi.

[georger64]

fyi: I am not German, I just live here. But your point is taken, so much for stereotypes, you little hypocrite

[maricosu]

Are you a fat and stupid American? How do you like stereotypes now? I hate political correctness myself, but that Peter Sellers performancewas just plain stupid. He was the typical Brit who looks down to Italian culture without knowing anything about it.

[sastal]

Be', pero' la giacchetta sulle spalle e gli occhialoni ci stanno. Un po' di umorismo, su. Sei sardo? Ciao,

[maricosu]

Il senso dell'umorismo mi è passato dopo aver vissuto in USA e aver visto gli italiani rappresentati SEMPRE come dei simil-mafiosi. Sì sono sardo, e sono alto 1.87 e biondo, a proposito di stereotipi... Ciao

[sastal]

Ti capisco. Magari ti avranno anche detto che non sembri italiano, vero? Io ho vissuto per tre anni in Germania, e debbo dirti che il discorso cambia di poco. Io invece sono di origine sarda, di Sassari. Se sei sull'isola, goditi il mare un po' anche per me. Saluti da Miami,

[Garyffalos]

Can't believe it's Peter Sellers....

[lp115lp]

Obviously you've never seen his film 'After the Fox'. Clips are available on YouTube.

[nedmarc]

Notice the flicker of the movie projector!

[MooseBreathMints]

Ha Ha Ha!!! Hee hee hee!!! ha ha hee hee!!! ...ahhhhhhhhhhh!!! Sorry. I'm okay now. Mr. Sellers always caused me to CRACK-UP! All he had to do is look at me and and I would just lose it!!! There were not too many actors/comedians that could do that!!! He was a ONE -Of-A-KIND! We miss him!!! THANKS for the Commercials!!! It brings back great times and memories! Praise GOD!

[lsrspewpew]

wow, is it me or do those seats in first/business class look really uncomfortable!!

[TWAviator]

nothing like actual 100% flat seats, but inflight service with all those variety of food & beverages provided was a better compensation

[goaliegal31]

Peter is sooooo good at his accents

[suhueian]

For you youngsters. Peter Sellers is the actor.

[fatasianchick]

omg exquisite.

thanks

[ptarr767]

This is too cool!!

[rodbcon]

HEEEY! The girl with the headphones is TERI GARR!!! wow!

[spirtw72]

Wow. They'd have made a killer pair in a full-length comedy.
