Viewing Notes

Can’t recall exactly why I picked up this one… I think because of Elke Sommer. I have a little bit of nostalgia for the Pink Panther films but the slapstick humor isn’t as appealing to me as an adult. I never watched this one as a kid but I did see several of the sequels which are in my Childhood Movies Project.
