I could hardly follow the plot, but "A Shot in the Dark" is competently carried by Peter Sellers in the same way as the first "Pink Panther."

The first in the series to feature Clouseau as the main character. The inspired silliness and stupidity is really funny. My favorite of the series.

This is the follow-up to The Pink Panther, easily confused since it came out the same year. I actually think it's funnier than the first film and contains many of the most classic and memorable Clousseau sequences.
