  • La Panth\350Re Rose.Wps
    Au commencement La panthère rose est le protagoniste et personnage principal d'une série de dessins animés créée par Friz Freleng en 1964 pour la Mirisch Company et distribués par United Artists. Le personnage est apparu pour la première fois à l'écran pendant les génériques de début et de fin du film de 1963, La 1 Panthère rose. Une caricature de l'inspecteur Clouseau, héros des films originaux, fut, de 1965 à 1969, la vedette d'une autre série de dessins animés, créée également par Freleng, et intitulée The Inspector. La panthère rose évolue dans un monde parfois absurde et surréaliste. Dans ce registre, un des chefs-d'œuvre de la série est le court métrage Psychedelic Pink (voir dans la liste des épisodes : La Panthère Psychédélique), qui la montre franchissant la porte d'un univers onirique, où elle se 2 retrouve entourée d'énormes lettres de l'alphabet ; elle utilise un J pour jouer au golf (la balle de golf est le point d'un i), puis elle est mise en joue par son adversaire, le petit bonhomme moustachu (voir plus bas) qui se sert d'un F renversé comme d'un fusil. Le rôle muet de la panthère rose lui donne, comme à un mime, une portée universelle. Elle est en général calme et flegmatique, mais parfois, elle se rappelle qu'elle est panthère et se bagarre : elle se défend contre un fantôme et un squelette dans 3 Panique en rose (Pink Panic), lutte pour un os avec ses contemporains préhistoriques dans La Panthère à l'âge de pierre (Extinct Pink), et se bat avec un démonstrateur publicitaire dans La Panthère au supermarché (Supermarket Pink).
