    Jerry Lewis RIP

    Bit of a cantankerous old sod toward the end but fantastic in his prime

    Agree. I was only a kid but used to love his films with Dean Martin.

    Probably one of my earliest memories of comedy.

    RIP Jerry
    I'm sure you were a great trooper and comedian and deserve all the accolades you got but I'm afraid I didn't find your films funny at all.

    I'm with you Enoch - enjoyed King of Comedy, but as for the rest of his films, you'd have to pay me to watch them.

    RIP.

    RIP.
    The King of Comedy is a very good and serious film but was not a comedy vehicle written specially for him like some of his other films. To me he seems to be a very talented and accomplished stage performer whose talents never really translated to film. I also put Danny Kaye and Norman Wisdom in the same category, they also appeared in many films I did not find funny. I suppose it's all a matter of opinion and personal taste and many will disagree.
