 The first movie based around the character of Inspector Clouseau (a supporting character in the original Pink Panther) supplies more laughs than any three normal characters. Peter Sellers created one of cinema’s great comic characters in this dignified yet idiotic detective who believes himself a crime-solving mastermind, and A Shot In the Dark gives Clouseau his best vehicle. The cast includes George Sanders as a possibly guilty nobleman and a beautiful (if talent-impaired) Elke Sommer as the obvious suspect whom Clouseau refuses to suspect.
