A Shot in the Dark (1964 film) adapted from the French play "L'Idiote" by Marcel Achard. The film was released only a few months after the first Clouseau film, "The Pink Panther". Inspector Clouseau (Peter Sellers) of the Sûreté, the French national police, is called to the country home of millionaire Benjamin Ballon (George Sanders) to investigate the murder of his chauffeur, Miguel Ostos. The chauffeur was having an affair with one of the maids, Maria Gambrelli (Elke Sommer), and attacked her in her bedroom after she broke off with him. Miguel was shot and killed in her bedroom and Maria was found with the smoking gun
Follow the Boys (song) Follow the Boys (song) "Follow the Boys" is a 1963 song that was used as the theme song to the 1963 comedy film of the same name and was also a Top 20 hit for Connie Francis. Three different versions of the song exist: the first version was recorded on June 30, 1962 during the shooting of the on-location scenes in Italy, where Francis overdubbed her vocals to a playback which had been pre-recorded under the direction of Geoff Love at EMI's Abbey Road Studios in London. This version was used for the opening and closing credits of the film.
