Trail of the Pink Panther | comment |
Trail of the Pink Panther is a 1982 crime/comedy film and the seventh installment in The Pink Panther franchise, once again directed by Blake Edwards. This was the first film in the series to be created after the death of Peter Sellers, and utilized previously-unused footage of Sellers as Clouseau from the previous films.For the third time in the series, the Pink Panther diamond is once again stolen in Lugash. President Haleesh (Harold Kasket) requests the aid of Inspector Clouseau, seeing how he had managed to find the diamond before, much to Chief Inspector Dreyfus’ (Herbert Lom) continuing chagrin. While Dreyfus wallows away in his psychiatrist’s office, Clouseau bungles around the city before boarding a plane to Lugash.Then he goes missing.This news catches the attention of French television présentatrice Marie Jouvet (Joanna Lumley), who decides to seek out some of Clouseau’s old friends, including his senile father (Richard Mulligan), to learn more about his life and, against everyone's best wishes, find out what's become of him. | |

Trail of the Pink Panther / int_1f6983f7 | comment |
Ambiguous Situation: Organized crime picks up after Clouseau disappears. Whether this is just a coincidence or if he really was doing something to keep crime down is unclear, but The Don decides to assume its the later and work to prevent Clouseau from being found. | |

La Résistance: It's revealed Clouseau was a resistance fighter against the Nazi's, albeit a bumbling one who entirely failed to blow up a German convoy. | |

Grub Tub: At one point, Dreyfus has a dream where he's living the high life in a fancy house on a hill. As he's about to dive into his swimming pool, his hot trophy wife tells him that he'd been sent 3000 pounds of Jell-O for his birthday. Dreyfus remarks that only Clouseau would be stupid enough to do that, before he finds out firsthand just where he put it. | |

Rearrange the Song | |
Trail of the Pink Panther / int_b24ce4b2 | comment |
Rearrange the Song: The Pink Panther Theme. The opening titles variant offers a much more mellow take on the theme, with a heavier use of flutes and soft strings rather than swinging brass. The end titles variant is played over a Credits Montage of Peter Sellers' funniest moments as Inspector Clouseau and even includes a small excerpt of The Inspector Clouseau Theme. | |

Shout-Out | |
Trail of the Pink Panther / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Oddly, during the main titles, the Pink Panther and Clouseau turn into weird ball-shaped monsters, a deliberate reference of the video game Pac-Man, which came out two years prior. | |

Snap Back | |
Trail of the Pink Panther / int_ec8290b6 | comment |
Snap Back: The film can't quite seem to decide whether it's attempting this. Certain plot details and bits of dialogue seem to imply that it's ignoring all three of the 1970s sequels and instead acting as an alternate sequel to A Shot in the Dark, with Clouseau having been promoted to co-chief with Dreyfus in the aftermath of the Ballon case, and Dreyfus never having gone insane beyond his Villainous Breakdown at the end of Shot. On the other hand, the movie features flashbacks to the 1970s sequels, and there's a fleeting reference to this being the third time the Pink Panther jewel has been stolen (the first of course being in the first film, and the second being in Return). | |
