The Pink Panther, British comedy film, released in 1963, that was the first and arguably the best entry in the Pink Panther film series.
Bumbling French detective Jacques Clouseau (played by Peter Sellers) is assigned to prevent the notorious villain Phantom (David Niven) from stealing a world-famous jewel known as the Pink Panther, which belongs to a princess (Claudia Cardinale) who is on holiday at an Alpine resort.

Though the film was a comedy, Sellers’s Clouseau was not yet the over-the-top character he would later become.
