What?! No Herbert Lom?!
A Pink Panther movie just isn't a Pink Panther movie without him! He stole the show from Peter Sellers! Just like a sandwich just isn't a sandwich without the rich creamy taste of Miracle Whip.
Strange how I refuse to accept the fact that he actually has to age. I think he was 89 when this film came out. From 2004-2007 he was still working, at least that's what this site says; he did voice-over work. Even though, to me, he will always be Dreyfus, I'd like to see this film and see how Kevin Kline does.
In my mind, he will always be young, alive, Dreyfus, and Professor Petrie.
