An original Australian Daybill poster for the 1971 release of “The Statue”

A British comedy film starring David Niven, Robert Vaughn and Virna Lisi and directed by Rodney Amateau. John Cleese and Graham Chapman appear in early career roles as the Niven character's psychiatrist and a newsreader, respectively.

David Niven is the inventor of a marvellous new international language that will help us all communicate, tear down national boundaries, bring peace to the world, etc. He wins the Nobel Prize, but he's only home 18 days in three years. His wife, Virna Lisi, queen of bad, is a sculptress who does a statue of Niven, about 20 feet high. Now here's the gag. Are you ready? Because he's not home enough, she's hired a model for the private parts.

"Dedicated to the proposition that all men are not created equal."
