The Return of the Pink Panther (Edwards, 1975): BFI Southbank, NFT1, 2.50pm

This classic comedy film (screened on 35mm) is part of the Peter Sellers season at BFI Southbank. The film also screens on August 27th. Details here.

Chicago Reader review:
A triumphant 1974 return of Peter Sellers as the exquisitely inept Inspector Clouseau. The razor-sharp direction is by Blake Edwards, whose instinct for the amusing aspects of life’s gruesome interludes makes this innocent looking comedy-mystery a study of survival-with-style in the face of almost certain disaster.

Here (and above) is the trailer.
