The Pink Panther is a 1963 comedy/mystery film directed and co-written by Blake Edwards and starring David Niven, Peter Sellers, Robert Wagner, Capucine, and Claudia Cardinale.As a child, Princess Dala (Cardinale) was given the incredibly valuable "Pink Panther" diamond as a present by her father, the shah of Lugash. Eventually Dala was forced into exile after her father's death and the takeover of her country by a military junta. Now she's living in high style at a ski resort in the Italian Alps, but the Lugash government maintains that the diamond belongs to the country and wants her to give it up. There's also a mysterious jewel thief, "The Phantom", who is believed to be after the Pink Panther. Inspector Jacques Clouseau (Sellers), of the French Sûreté, is on the trail of the Phantom and has come to the resort with his wife Simone (Capucine) in the hope of catching the elusive thief. Luckily for the Phantom, however, Clouseau is an idiot bumbler.Meanwhile, charming English gentleman Sir Charles Lytton (Niven) is also staying at the ski resort. Sir Charles becomes smitten with the gorgeous Princess Dala, who falls for him in return. What Dala doesn't know is that Sir Charles is the Phantom and is after the Pink Panther. And what Clouseau doesn't know is that Simone is Charles's lover and his partner in crime. Things are complicated further when Charles's American nephew George (Wagner) shows up at the resort unexpectedly, looking for money from his rich uncle.Started one of the most famous movie franchises of all time. First of six "Pink Panther" films starring Sellers, whose Inspector Clouseau became the Breakout Character and the focus of the series starting with the second film, A Shot in the Dark. There was a misbegotten seventh film (Trail of the Pink Panther) produced two years after Sellers' 1980 death using outtake footage, two more films in 1983 and 1993 that also bombed, and finally a reboot starring Steve Martin, with two films in 2006 and 2009. In addition to all those movies, the opening credit sequence inspired the last great series of The Golden Age of Animation, The Pink Panther cartoon series.

comment
The Bad Guy Wins: Not so much a case of "wins" as "ends up better off than the good guy," but Sir Charles Lytton successfully frames Clouseau for the diamond theft, and steals his wife to boot. On the other hand, Clouseau ends up in police protection, chased by a mob of women convinced he is the sexiest jewel thief in the world. When a policeman asks him how "he" pulled off all those robberies, he glances back at the women and says thoughtfully, "Well, you know, it wasn't easy."

comment
The Pink Panther in the animated opening credits has a noticeably different looking design and is shown to switch between being four-legged and two-legged, in contrast to later films and the cartoons, which establishes him as firmly being two-legged. The inspector, who becomes his reoccurring foe in later openings, also only appears once.

Early-Installment Weirdness
 The Pink Panther (1963) / int_4f4372e9
comment
Early-Installment Weirdness: About 3/4th of The Pink Panther is everyone trying to sleep with everyone with a somewhat goofy Frenchman mentioning a jewel thief. It even extends to the title sequence, with the animated Pink Panther being a prankster who keeps interfering with the film's credits, and the Inspector only briefly appearing over Peter Sellers's credit. And of course, anyone who comes to this movie after watching the other films, or after having heard of Inspector Clouseau and The Pink Panther through Popcultural Osmosis, might be surprised to find that David Niven and Claudia Cardinale are the stars of the film, and Peter Sellers is only a supporting player. We briefly see Clouseau wearing a raincoat and hat, but they're not the same as his Iconic Items (the raincoat here is more light tan than beige, and the hat is a darker grey). Neither Chief Inspector Dreyfus nor Cato Fong appear here, both debuting as Iconic Sequel Characters in the next film.

comment
Artistic License – Law: At the end of the first film, Sir Charles says that even though Clouseau has been falsely convicted of being the Phantom, he'll be set free again the next time the Phantom strikes. In reality, unless Sir Charles was caught during his next robbery and confessed to having framed Clouseau, nothing of the sort would happen. The police would almost certainly assume that either he had an accomplice who they failed to catch, or that the new theft was the work of a copycat. Either way, Clouseau would still be sitting in jail.

In Love with the Mark
 The Pink Panther (1963) / int_bd620d3c
comment
In Love with the Mark: Sir Charles finds himself falling in love with Princess Dala after spending the night with her, inadvertently breaking the first cardinal rule of thievery note  "Never get involved with your target" in case you were wondering. . He later admits to Simone that he's even considered calling off the theft of the Panther diamond for Dala's sake. This passes though, as he decides to go through with the theft anyway.

Ugly Guy, Hot Wife: The Clouseaus are written as this. It would have been more blatant with Peter Ustinov and Ava Gardner, who were originally slated for the roles.

Suspicious Spending: How Clouseau is framed as the Phantom at the end; when his wife's huge amounts of Suspicious Spending are pointed out, he's convicted of thieving to maintain her lifestyle. In truth, of course, she's one of the thieves.

Breakout Character
 The Pink Panther (1963) / int_da0eeab5
comment
Breakout Character: Peter Sellers as Jacques Clouseau absolutely stole the show in every single scene he was in, to the point where he was immediately recast as the main character in subsequent entries in the series. Those who are introduced to the series from later works and go back to watch the original are often surprised to find that Clouseau is merely a supporting actor in this film, with the story mostly revolving around the escapades of Sir Charles Lytton. The Pink Panther cartoon character from the opening titles also counts, as he would go on to have his own television series.
