The Pink Panther has to be one of my all time favorites- is it a French film? Well if not, at least the inspector was French.

Isn't Art dependant upon what's fashionable at the time?

Real art such as the classic's are timeless but still it comes and goes with the fashion of the day eg Pavarotti made Opera truly popular with Nessun Dorma before that it was a small minority but now it enjoys a wider audience, Nigel Kennedy with Vivaldi's 4 seasons was another example..

The FFI has "had" its day.....!.........It has had it's classic's but no more.

I totally agree .....the Pink Panther series made famous by Peter Sellers was a real classic.

The funny thing was he was ripping the French ............................You little minky!

Its was actually a British made classic.

LOL blobby : I've tried to stay away from the subject as far as those who where answering have beeng efficient in their answers. and CHEVYSNATs have made the point.

Also, I've been surprised that you know more than I thought about the French movie industrie and have been able to point masterpieces ... I would add "VIDOCK" I've been surprised myself about this movie (even about the colors they used).

Now the question is why should you know better than those who just state about their tastes ... again it is a question of taste, and again those who make their opinion on how much a movie makes monney probably missed masterpieces from all over the world. Your losses. But arguing against peoples taste is just a non sens.

Now did you get interested in the Asian movies industries (cause your own industrie does - did you feel the wind of it ?). Oh well ... get stuck on your own products and be the last to know about everything else. your choice after all !
