Movie review - Pink Panther#2 - "A Shot in the Dark" (1964) ***

Sequel to The Pink Panther, adapted from a play which didn't feature Inspector Clouseau but the film does. Peter Sellars is in good form and the film introduced the characters of Dreyfus (Herbert Lom) and Kato (Burt Kwouk), who appeared in the later sequels. A decent, funny film - not as great as some say (such as Leonard Maltin), and I missed the Pink Panther and more obvious glamour of the first film, but it has sweet Elke Sommer and some funny moments.
