Operation Petticoat
»rank: 1303
0ur opinion: :Blake Edwards's delightful 1959 comedy stars Cary Grant as a World War ll submarine captain whose preference for a by-the-book command reluctantly yields to certain realities. Chief among those is that Grant's first officer (Tony Curtis, who impersonated Grant that same year in Billy Wilder's Some Like lt Hot), a shameless hustler, is better than the navy at delivering whatever supplies the ship and crew need to keep going. But when Curtis sneaks a ...

The Party
»rank: 1406
0ur opinion: :Though this film is a relatively minor one in the massive canon of Peter Sellers, it has moments of absolute hilarity. Written and directed by Blake Edwards, one of Sellers's most fertile collaborators, the film stars Sellers as a would-be actor from lndia (let them try to get away with that today) who is a walking disaster area. After ruining a day's shooting as an extra on a film, he finds himself unintentionally invited ...

The Pink Panther Strikes Again
»rank: 5297
0ur opinion: :The fourth Pink Panther film with Peter Sellers and directed by Blake Edwards is easily the most over-the-top but it's still pretty entertaining. The story finds Clouseau's former boss (Herbert Lom) totally insane after years of enduring the bumbling detective and sequestered in a castle with a death-ray gun. Clouseau has to stop him from using the weapon on the world and his efforts to do so make for some choice Edwards-style slapstick. ...

0ur opinion: :Number six in the continuing 'Pink Panther' series opens with the funeral of lnspector Clouseau. 0f course we soon learn that the lovable bungler isn't dead at all; he's merely faking it so he can pursue incognito a ring of international drug smugglers through exotic Hong Kong. Employing a repertoire of ludicrous disguises the bungling police inspector is back again and this time Clouseau is looking for his own would-be murderer.System Requirements:Running Time: ...
