The Pink Panther

Daisy's story is below the poster.

Daisy always believed that more movies should be made where the focus was on cats who had people with them rather than films about people who had cats with them. So when she heard that Blake Edwards was going to be directing a film called The Pink Panther, she was elated and lobbied to be in the film. Edwards' reputation as a master of comedic films and the involvement of the adroit Peter Sellers only increased her desire to be part of the cast.

However, she was greatly disappointed to find out that the movie wasn't about a panther and that there were actually no cats of any sort in the original script. Even worse, the Pink Panther wasn't even an animal; it was just a glass prop.

But the opportunity to work with Edwards and Sellers outweighed those disappointments.

Unlike many of her previous films where the actors stayed true to the script, Sellers' amazing ad-libbing and sense of timing convinced Edwards to use multiple cameras in the scenes with Sellers to capture all of his improvisations. So the script was very loose. Daisy and the other actors always had to be alert and ready to improvise in character in order to react to whatever Sellers did or said. It was a thoroughly enjoyable although challenging experience.
