You were, it seems, among the few to enjoy the second, if not either film, and so it seems that Steve Martin's reboot of the franchise has ended.

The first entry, 2006's "The Pink Panther," made quite a bit of money at the box office (and, ever more importantly, on video), and though critics for the most part disliked it, many figured they were destined to.

Q: I'm trying to remember the name of an old movie. It starred the "Odd Couple" stars as reporters for a newspaper. I think there were several other big stars in it as well.

The film you're looking for is the 1974 Billy Wilder production of "The Front Page," a beloved, decades-old stage play.

It starred, as you say, Walter Matthau and Jack Lemmon, the third of 10 collaborations the two friends made over their long careers.

Lemmon played a reporter at a Chicago tabloid who was weary of the business and planning to quit. His scheming editor, played by Matthau, convinces him to stay on to cover the sensational story of the execution of a convicted murderer.
