Design of the Inspector
I have to admit, I definately preferred the design of Clouseau for the animated shorts and was glad they used it for these titles rather that the rather ugly and usually expessionless one that adorns almost EVERYTHING to do with The Pink Panther franchise (including, puzzlingly, the Pasilades toys which are seemingly based on the TV series of theatrical cartoons).
But I have yet to see THIS actual film! I liked Pat Harrington's voice of the Inspector in the cartoons, even if it did make him seem less bumbling (which was not a bad idea). Is this film and Alan Arkins' portayal anything anything like the cartoons?
