  1. I was just surprised how comfortable some people are in their holocaust denial. Actually, I was stunned.

    I do want to see this movie. I will probably watch Jerry Lewis’ better films first though so this thing isn’t so traumatizing.

  2. I was never so disillusioned until the night a friend and I decided to go see Jerry Lewis at a Denver night club. The room was totally blue with F bombs hanging in the air, punctuated frequently by vulgar names for women’s privates. I didn’t hear a single real joke. And angry?! Whoa! Mental. Definitely mental. Hollywood is equal parts nature and nurture — except for the Newmans and Meryl Streep, I don’t think there is anyone in that town who isn’t “normal” by any generally accepted use of that word.

  3. Nope. His gags don’t hold up now. A decade from now? Sorry don’t see it. If you met him in person, you’d see a man who views his audience as “the little people” and unworthy of his respect.
    IMO.

  4. Nope, don’t care, I like my humour more Will Rogers or Dennis Miller.
    Lewis always made me feel uncomfortable, you know, like when your mother cleaned your dirty face in public with her spit.
