Inspector Clouseau and the pop-out lighter

[@jjflash2611]

I've seen this scene dozens of times and I am still in tears laughing whenever I see it. Peter Sellers was born to play Inspector Clouseau. Pure comical genius. There will never be another.

Pure comedic genius. You didnt need a din of background music and special effects, nor constant dialogue when Peter Sellers was involved. The silence and subtleties of acting are in themselves very funny with both actors. Look at how the straight man enables the concealment by keeping his eyes on the road, and letting Clouseau have his space to demolish the car. We have no films like those, nor actors today....

Superb timing on the explosions, makes me laugh every time.

Only Clouseau could blow up a car by messing with the cigarette lighter. Brilliant.

[@Surfer7901]

There was a definite bad omen. Just before he stabbed the cigarette lighter with catastrophic results, an Austin Allegro passed their Peugeot doing an uncharacteristically high...er....well.. increased level of speed. The Allegro driver got lucky; this time it was not the Allegro that blew up. And believe me, i have ridden many a worrying trip in Allegros (Allegrii ??). But, just a thought - Seeing an Allegro on a French road made me realize that if there was ever a single Frenchman who bought one in preference to a 2CV or a Simca etc, this consigns the whole French nation to a basket case. Hopefully it isn't true, and it was a lucky English tourist. Vive La France!!
