A Shot in the Dark**       

(US 1964)                              

Murder and intrigue in a French aristocrat's house. The bumbling Inspector Clouseau investigates, and even more murders result.
Professionally filmed whodunnit, turned by Blake Edwards into a Goonish farce, with some of the running jokes very funny and others rather overstretched, with Sellers settling himself into the role that would become his most famous.
