A Shot in the Dark [DVD] [1964]

Peter Sellers's Clouseau stole the show in The Pink Panther, but became a bona fide star in this-the second, & best, film of the series, which ironically is the only one not to feature the jewel or the animated title character. This time, the inspector is investigating a series of murders in which a beautiful, quiet maid (Elke Sommer) is the prime suspect. The romance which blossoms between the two is surprisingly sweet. This entry also marks the series debuts of Herbert Lom, Bert Kwouk, & Andre Maranne (as Clouseau's long-suffering superior Dreyfus, Clouseau's servant Kato, & Dreyfus's assistant Francois, respectively) who would become mainstays in the series. This could very well be the funniest movie of all time!

I was recommended this movie by a friend, but it was so boring I had to stop watching. The plot is fairly predictable and the humor wasn't very funny to me.
