Plastered in Paris

About This Movie

Plastered in Paris is an intriguing animated gem from 1966 that blends slapstick humor with a whimsical adventure. The film follows Inspector Clouseau, that bumbling yet endearing detective, accompanied by Sergeant Deux-Deux as they traverse from the heart of Paris to the vast landscapes of Africa. The pacing has this delightful ebb and flow – some moments are frenetic with chase scenes that are quite imaginative, thanks to the clever use of various vehicles like a submarine and an army tank. The animation style has that charming, slightly rough quality indicative of the era, which adds a certain warmth to the experience. The characters’ performances, infused with comic timing, pull you into their zany world, making it a curious watch for animation aficionados.

Plastered in Paris has a niche appeal among animation collectors, partly due to its unique blend of humor and adventure. It's not as widely available as other animated titles from the 60s, making original prints particularly sought after. The film's quirky aesthetic and distinct narrative style have contributed to a small but dedicated following, ensuring that it remains a topic of conversation among animation enthusiasts.
