THE RETURN OF THE PINK PANTHER

The long delayed PINK PANTHER movie starring Steve Martin (as Inspector Clouseau) opens this week. It is accompanied by several merchandising tie-ins including a DVD collection featuring every Pink Panther theatrical cartoon, a Sweet’N Low advertising campaign, and several books including one by yours truly. I haven’t seen the feature yet, but I’m looking forward to seeing the opening animated titles by Bob Kurtz and Eric Goldberg. Regardless of the quality of the new feature film, it’s nice to have an old animated friend back on the scene.
