The pale pink panther

I'd completely forgotten that they had made a Clouseau movie without Peter Sellers or director Blake Edwards until I ran across this ad from its initial Columbus run in August of 1968. It seems to be largely forgotten (though it is available on Blu-Ray) and, as it stars Alan Arkin and is directed by Bud Yorkin--known more for TV work--it's usually considered to be outside the Pink Panther canon. (Imagine a Harry Potter movie with, I dunno, Michael Cera instead of Daniel Radcliffe!)
