The Pink Panther
Pardon His French.
Directed by Shawn Levy
Produced by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, Columbia Pictures
A lighthearted, slapstick comedy mystery where an incompetent inspector bumbles through a murder investigation in glamorous Paris, prioritizing laughs over logic.
When the coach of the France football team is killed by a poisoned dart in the stadium at the end of a game, and his huge, expensive ring with the Pink Panther diamond disappears, the ambitious Chief Inspector Dreyfus assigns the worst police inspector – Jacques Clouseau – to the case.
