Pink Panter the Pink Panther

In Santa Rosa (California) there is a museum with more than 6,000 items and interesting things: clothes, toothpaste, music boxes, posters, etc. All of them from different countries such as Spain, Australia or Japan.

The charming feline is a mandatory title, in the filmography of director Blake Edwards. The original comedy has inspired 11 other films and hit animated series. He stamped his footprint on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and showed off on the cover of Time magazine.

Its pink color is another factor that cannot be overlooked. “The Pink Panter” is a human being with the appearance of an animal. Its unusual tonality adds to it the ability to break the limitations between the masculine or feminine. The term “panther” is English, it has no gender connotation. In a universe where everything is pink, the audience is immersed in a narrative where discussions on this subject matter little matter.

In the series credits, this figure is shown a little more feminine. In addition, on the cover of the original film's soundtrack, he poses smoking from a very stylized mouthpiece. However, he is also seen taking on more masculine roles. In the famous song “El Show de la Pantera Rosa”, he is described in the lyrics as a “gentelman”.

This ambiguous and fascinating feature conquers both men and women, boys and girls.
