    Clouseau's' sense of dignity makes these scenes. The writing is so good it would work with other actors, but Sellers takes it to another level.

      Это мог сыграть не только Питер Селлерс, но Лесли Нильсен тоже. Самое главное - морду поленом и гнуть свою линию. Высоцкий про такого пел. Вещий Олег продолжал свою линию гнуть, да так, что никто и не пикнул. Он только однажды волхвов помянул и так саркастически хмыкнул - ну надо ж болтать ни с того ни с сего, что примет он смерть от коня своего. Есть такие люди в жизни, авторы его не с неба взяли.

      "It's not my dog". My favorite is when he's interviewing people at the mansion, gets his hand stuck in an armor glove with a mace ball attached. The ball ends up in the fireplace. When his hand gets hot enough, he swings to get the glove off, the ball smashes into the piano causing it to fall apart. The lady of the mansion says, "That's a priceless Steinway!" Clouseau looks at the remains of the piano an replies, "Not any more".

      I mean you could say that of any reboot. Its always difficult for any actor to step into the shoes of an established character. Look how many Spider-man reboots there have been. Or James Bond's numerous actors. I like Brosnan and all and it took a while for craig to win me over. But no one is a match for sean connery.
      Or look at the remake of true grit. A lot of people like the remake well enough, but it isn't John Wayne. Maybe that is more of an indictment of Hollywood that they keep going back to the well with reboots instead of original stuff.
      Steve Martin is talented, but he isnt Clouseau. I would say there are some things the Martin reboots did well though. Clouseau calling Cato his little yellow friend wouldn't really fly today. Especially in light of recent events. So they play off of this with Miss Berenger played by Lilly Tomlin. They also reverse the gag where Clouseau is attacked. The problem is that they keep recylcing the same gags.
      I watched a video series on youtube called legacy of the pink panther. It's well worth a watch. Some great points are made for and against the Martin Pink Panther films.

      I'm an American and I've never seen the Steve Martin remakes. ....Were they successful?

      Well, I don't know of any American who loved Steve Martin's performance, unless he or she was one of the pathetic few who had never seen the original Sellers.

    That's a very clever copyright law evasion at the start of this clip. It seems to be very successful.

    Peter Sellers at some of his best comedy but Kubrick actually wanted Selllers to play FOUR Parts (Slim Pickens' part) in "Dr. Strangelove". That's how talented he was.

    Clouseau is alive and well and working in Downing Street with occasional cameos on the news and in Majorca.

    It’s moments like him clobbering the bank manager which make this series the gold that it is.
