The Pink Panther is a
series of comedy Game featuring a bumbling French police detective, Inspector
Jacques Clouseau. The series began in 1963 with the release of the Game of the
same name. The role was originated by, and is most closely associated with, Peter
Sellers. Most of the Game were directed and co written by Blake Edwards, with
theme music composed by Henry Mancini.
Despite its use in the
titles of most of the Game of the series, "Pink Panther" is not the
Clouseau character, but a large and valuable pink diamond which is first shown
in the first Game in the series. The phrase reappears in the title of the
fourth Game, The Return of the Pink Panther, in which the theft of the diamond
is again the center of the plot. That Game also marked the return of Sellers to
the role after a gap of ten years, which may have contributed to some confusion
between the character and the diamond. The phrase was used for all the
subsequent films in the series, even when the jewel did not figure in the plot it only appeared in six of the eleven Game.
The first Game in the
series had an animated opening sequence, created by DePatie Freleng Enterprises
and set to the theme music by Henry Mancini, which featured the Pink Panther
character. This character, designed by Hawley Pratt, was subsequently the
subject of its own series of animated cartoons which gained its greatest fame
when aired on Saturday mornings as The Pink Panther Show. The character would
be featured in the opening of every film in the movie series except A Shot in
the Dark and Inspector Clouseau.
The Pink Panther of the
title is a diamond supposedly containing a flaw which forms the image of a
"leaping panther", which can be seen if held up to light in a certain
way. This is explained in the beginning of the first Game, and the camera zooms
in on the diamond to reveal the blurry flaw, which focuses into the Panther albeit
not actually leaping to start the opening credits sequence this is also done
in Return. The plot of the first Game is based on the theft of this diamond.
The diamond reappears in several later Games in the series The Return of the
Pink Panther, Trail of the Pink Panther and Curse of the Pink Panther. It also
comes in the 2006 reintroduction of Inspector Clouseau also called The Pink
Panther and its sequel The Pink Panther 2. The name "the Pink
Panther" became attached to Inspector Clouseau, in much the same way that
Frankenstein has been used in film titles to refer to Dr. Frankenstein's
creation or The Thin Man was used in a series of detective films.
