Two years after the death of
Peter Sellers,
Blake Edwards tried to exhume his corpse in this pastiche of clips and out-takes from the old Pink Panther films. The plot concerns the legendary "Pink Panther" diamond which is once more stolen. Inspector Clouseau (
Peter Sellers) is again enlisted to find the stolen bauble. When he follows the trail of the diamond to another country, he leaves on an airplane that is soon reported missing. Television reporter Marie Jouvet (
Joanna Lumley) then sets out to interview old acquaintances and associates of Clouseau, including Lady Litton (
Capucine), Inspector Dreyfus (
Herbert Lom) and Sir Charles Litton (
David Niven), who recall their experiences with the bumbling inspector. ~ Paul Brenner, All Movie Guide
