This, the first of the magnificent Pink Panther series, is an fabulous film. To know that originally Peter Ustinov was cast to play Jacques Clouseau as a straight, inept French detective is a sobering idea. After Ustinov dropped out, of course, Peter Sellers got the role and after consultation with Blake Edwards, decided to earn him not only inept, but also bumbling and accident prone, a characterization that defines how we mediate of Clouseau today. This film is racy in that since it is the first of the series it is though-provoking to glimpse the origins of the character, and how different he is here than in later ‘Panther’ films. Here is clumsy and prone to pratfalls, but is less flamboyantly slapstick than in the later films.
The film also stars the unbelievable David Niven, who plays the perfect suave English thief, and a very young Robert Wagner as his equally debonair nephew. Female stars are the shapely Claudia Cardinale and Capucine, two of the top European actresses and models from the era.
The movie is a bit more sedate than the later films in the series, but composed is one of the funniest movies of the sixties. ‘A Shot In The Dark’, also released in 1964, as the first sequel, began the transformation to the later formulas with additions such as the extraordinary Herbert Lom. ‘The Pink Panther’ does introduce the engrossing ‘Pink Panther’ short for the first time, as well as the often imitated, never duplicated title theme. Other viewers will have their absorb current scenes, and the costume party is surely one of the highlights of the film, but for my money the best scenes in the film revolve around Clouseau trying to woo his wife by playing his Stradivarius violin, over many protestations. The sight of distress on David Niven’s face during his playing is worth the mark of the film alone

If I were doing it today, I would prefer this DVD as portion of the multi DVD ‘Pink Panther’ situation, where it also includes a few tantalizing bonuses such as a ‘trivia track’, which adds spacious tidbits about the film.
Peter Sellers was a silly genius, and the world unruffled waits for another genius of his stature. I judge we will be waiting a long, long time.
This first Pink Panther movie is as generous as the next “A Shot in the Sad.” Both are salubrious films, with a sound record, a creatively hilarious and shining screenplay, a well-developed status of characters, and a current style of filming that elevates “slapstick comedy” to the highest level of sophistication. there are so many quotable lines that are well-worth to write them down as you ogle the movie. The soundtrack song “Meglio Stasera(It had better be tonight) “is great and written to fit perfectly into the theme and mood of the film. Fran Jeffries sings it very well to a crowd of people by a fireplace, and she is as toothsome as this scene itself. Claudia Cardinale and Capucine explain style and charm in their roles. The title sequence runs over 7 minutes and it is as marvelous as the movie itself. The 60′s recount, in my notion, the highest point in fashion and general pop culture which truly reflects the highest level of sophistication and taste; in this context, this movie is one of the movies that best recount the 60′s. I agree with the other viewer that this movie should figure in the 100 Best movies of any list. The DVD is large with the finest record quality; check the trailer because it is hysterically amusing and very fresh, not the case of current movie trailers. This movie is ideal for a cozy evening with friends and your approved martinis. I fair wish there were a special DVD edition with Director Blake Edwards’ commentary on separate track, and of others alive to in the making of this masterpiece.
