比第二部差了很多。这里其实Clouseau就不是主角,其经典形象根本不用建立——不过经典的主题旋律是经久不衰了😂
能排在系列的第二,实在只是因为是第一部,就表演来讲未必比Steve Martin的强。开始的场景切换很有意思,4人一屋的戏也很有趣、有点《三岔口》的意思。结局收的有点仓促,Clouseau下水没问题,但没有反转就有点另类了。

Blake Edwards’ THE PINK PANTHER, which launches Peter Sellers’ beloved character Inspector Jacques Clouseau onto the celluloid, is originally deemed a star vehicle for David Niven’s Sir Charles Lytton, whose secret identity is a roué jewelry thief, aka, “The Phantom”. Mr. Niven oozes an innate luster of urbanity tinged with bashfulness and innocuousness which is disarming and photogenic, women shall be enamored with him, and men would love to be him because his philandering mischief will hurt no one. Indeed, the script insouciantly glosses over its criminal technicalities in favoring of a goofy comedy upstaged by Mr. Sellers’ comic tics, Inspector Clouseau is a bungling caricature, unwittingly two-timed by his wife Simone (Capucine), and conscientious to catch The Phantom before he lay claims to the titular diamond in possession of an Indian princess Dala (Cardinale, whisked to Hollywood in a race-insensitive role trading on her gorgeousness and she is quite a delight in capturing a whiff of tipsy feline bewitchment).
Dawdling from a picturesque ski resort in Cortina d’Ampezzo to Princess Dala’s imperial villa in Rome, where a masquerade is followed by a pyrotechnic commotion, the film is conspicuously light in its action (the only set piece is a midnight four-vehicle caper witnessed by an aloof old man in the square), but predominantly elicits laughter from its cartoony context, the most delectable one actually takes place in a bedroom which involves Simone painstakingly trying to hide two men from her husband, who feels frisky to assume their nightly amusement.
Peter Sellers makes great play of Jacques’ flat-footedness and unassuming persona to a sparking extent, its drollness would be further and maximally exploited in another Edward-Sellers comedy THE PARTY (1968), the mismatch of his unyielding physicality and dead-pan expression is a winning combo. A silk-stocking Capucine also relishes in her duplicitous flip-flopping with mild exasperation mingled with simmering gaiety, but Robert Wagner’s George, the prodigal nephew of Charles, comes across as a drag vaunting his shallow good-looking and brazen chivalry. Also, singer Fran Jeffries contributes a swooning MEGLIO STASERA (IT HAD BETTER BE TONIGHT) which is forever inscribed in one’s cortex along with its ear-worm theme ditty, both penned by Henry Mancini.
In toto, it is a comforting experience to see Blake Edawrds’ THE PINK PATHER still holds its allure amazingly with its exquisite patina of sophistication and humor, unadulterated by vulgarity and snobbery - the pathology prevalent in modern-day studio comedy wheeled out from Hollywood, a blessing from the past.
referential points: Blake Edward’s BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY (1961) 7.4/10; THE PARTY (1968) 7.2/10.
Sellers拧断门把手时没笑,RJ拧断时笑得不能自理;叔侄大猩猩开保险箱那段二货X2;站马路中间那位大爷内心是崩溃的;最后神似一家三口。
四星半
套房和保险箱两场戏确实很棒,但惟有餐馆门口那场大撞车才真是深得Keaton中期精髓。港片抄得了形式,但抄不了那份对comedian的温柔与克制。
没第二部嗲,而且很多戏没有Clouseau的。不过越后面越好,而且结尾巨潇洒。Natalie Wood的老公卖相真好,典型的60年代帅哥。
经典片前两天才看。卡士似乎很强大,Dala公主的眼睛和嘴唇都很挑逗。另一个女主角周旋于男人之间是不是太累了一点。中间插入的歌舞有点突兀不过挺有意思。
1963年 粉红豹系列电影第一部。本片情节丰富,人物性格鲜明,称得上是一部紧张热闹的喜剧。彼得谢勒在本片尽情表露了他的喜剧天才,并生动地创造出杜索探长这个脍炙人口的角色,创下了顽皮豹卡通影集的佳绩。克劳迪亚·卡汀娜真美,卧室戏有点意思。
澳洲铅笔都是神马笑点
新艺城的一切花样都源自于此
找粉红豹的电影找错了,误打误撞下了1963年这个版本,看完后再上网查了下,才发现这是个系列。。。,无知的我啊。不过后来一想我还是很幸运的,能从这个系列的第一级看起,真是运气。第一部虽然是老片子,但味道十足,里面探长搞笑,两窃贼尽显绅士风度。算佳片一部。
6。传说中的粉红豹,有点失望,Sellers的蹩脚警探。
套房三岔口
好爱!
配乐太经典啦
把这楞劲坚持完全片也是蛮厉害的
化装舞会和其后的追车一段简直笑死我了。
公主真美丽
Peter Selles严肃而不刻意的讨巧是Steve Martin学不来的。求后几部档!
笑趴下了
很充实的无聊
好老的片子啊~不过卡通粉红豹真的设计的很别出心裁
