AS SEEN ON TV: SELLERS MARKET, PART THREE

For today's "As Seen On TV", here's another "Dr. Strangelove" character played by Peter Sellers - who in turn was played by Geoffrey Rush in "The Life And Death Of Peter Sellers" on HBO. Here he is seen as President Merkin Muffley in the War Room, talking on the Red Phone with Soviet Premier Dmitri Kissov.

In the expanded screen capture, we see the Russian Ambassador sitting next to him. In the original movie, the Ambassador was played by Peter Bull, but I could find no listing for the actor playing Bull in the bio-pic's credits at IMDb.com. The guy looks a little like he could be Fred Dalton Thompson's brother!
