The Pink Panther Compilation: Best of Inspector Dreyfus & Clouseau | MGM

[@gokaury]

Herbert Lom was the unsung hero of the franchise. The perfect insane foil to Clouseau's bumbling, inept inspector. His delivery during the eulogy was perfect.

[@kinngrimm]

his twitching eye i always remember and still make me chuckle

[@bigapplebucky]

I watched that in a theater when the flick first came out in the 70's I remember laughing about as hard as I ever have.

[@docmalthus]

Check out the original The Ladykillers (1955). It was the first time Lom and Sellers were teamed and Peter Seller's first major film role.

[@williamrooth]

I believe that the eulogy Herbert Lom delivered should live forever in the annals of comedy! Sheer genius.

[@wayinfront1]

Yes. And of course he had a very long association with Sellers. I first saw them act together in the 1950s in the comedy noir film The Ladykillers.

Agreed Herbert was a genius. Suggest the British film 'A Comedy of Horrors'. The premise of this film is how does an undertaker drum up more business. All star British & American cast. Utterly hilarious

[@redd605]

I remember I think it was Barry Norman or something else doing a behind the scenes of a pink panther ,and there couldn't stop laughing on the set, and a scene in the lift, elevator. My favourite one was shot in the dark ,Elke Sommer was so brilliant and beautiful in that film , and she did a lot of cult films in the 60s,Matt helm, bulldog drummed,

The pairing of Sellers with Lom was pure genius. I still love watching these clips.

[@walterengler5709]

Honestly Herbert Lom was a great actor. I'm not sure how they wrote the character but the descent into madness, they way he played the role in the later movies, the mannerisms he added ... I'm not sure anyone else could have make the character so perfect as the foil Sellers was constantly destroying by his shear stupidity and luck.

[@BuffaloC305]

And the original film presaged this 'descent', too... and I agree with others, his scenes were the ones that truly moved the stories forward and at such a great pace. I do love the inclusion of The Original Wink in this compilation, too. The Most Important Wink in movie history, I think.

[@BuffaloC305]

I still can't get over Steve Martin ACCEPTING the role at all. I sort of wonder if he wasn't killed in a car-crash and replaced by someone named Campbell. After all, "Steve Martin" also accepted replacing Phil Silvers in the SGT BILKO remake, too. I can't get over him accepting these two roles.

[@TheRealMediaMan]

@@BuffaloC305 it wasn't horrible. The films were not good. But it was mostly the direction,co stars, plot lines... basically everything with Steve being the least of the problems. I'm a originality and a purist. I dont like it when remakes try to be too "original". I didnt like the new Kato, or Dreyfus roles. It's they kept it as close to the original as possible I would have been happier. Some parts do work for me though... When he's in the office with the pointer.... and nails his boss. Lol Or when he asks "was it fatal?... how fatal?... I want to talk to him now..." That gets me every time. Or the "everyone with the last name YU."

I was a boy when these movies were on tv back in the 60's, one of my favorites. Thank you

Now that's quality script writing! ~ This film was a perfect example of demonstrating that a fantastic comedy DOESN'T NEED FILTHY/FOUL LANGUAGE to make a comedy fantastic! 😁👍

Many tributes to Herbert Lom. His eulogy to Clousseau is perfection. Demonstrates just what a superb actor he was

This is one of the rare comedy videos on KZbin that has me laughing out loud. I loved watching the Pink Panther movies in the theatres way back when and this material is still incredibly funny after all these years. Thanks for posting this!❤

The Music 🎵 during the chase scenes was perfect! Music can laugh!😂❤🎉

It's little known that the characters of both Clouseau and Dreyfus were defined by Sellers and Lom themselves. The script only vaguely described their particular traits. So Sellers weird accent, Lom's facial twitches, etc. were all invented by the actors. Blake basically let them ad lib and go crazy. lol

It's a shame most people around today never got a chance to see these fantastic comedies. We were all laughing so hard we couldn't catch our breath. Surely some actually must have passed out in their seats.

I recall watching one of thew Pink Panther movies at Alvin C York theater at Fort Bragg when I was in the 82nd Airborne. We had a guy named Ashby in our recon platoon who had a very unique laugh. During the movie I heard that laugh all the way at the other side of the theater and that made the movie even more funny to me.

Herbert Lom was an incredible actor. Love how by the end of Shot in the dark his basically a serial killer, driven into being a snarling creature By Inspector Clouseau. Absolutely astounding acting he actually outshines Peter Sellers at times. Only thing is he looks like his stolen Frank Sinatra‘s Toupee.
