Revenge of the Pink Panther

Just when you thought it was safe to go back to the movies.

Revenge of the Pink Panther (1978) follows the hapless Inspector Jacques Clouseau after a French crime lord’s assassination attempt leads the world to believe he is dead, prompting him to use his own supposed demise as cover to break up a sophisticated drug-smuggling ring. As disguises, bungled investigations, and absurd encounters traverse Paris, New York, and Hong Kong, Clouseau’s improbable luck and signature ineptitude continue to confound allies and enemies alike. This British-American comedy blends slapstick detective chaos and international caper satire in a spirited, final outing for Sellers’ iconic sleuth.
