08/23/2015 Another Lewis/Tashlin pairing. Oddly in in black & white which really hinders the glitz that makes a Lewis solo excursion more palatable. Some great supporting performances and Lewis obviously held sway as his unique brand of physical humor is very much in the forefront. See more 01/27/2014 Jerry lewis is a master at comedy and this is just another comical feat! See more 05/07/2012 One of the best Tashlin/ Lewis films. It's hilarious. See more 04/16/2011 another interesting mcomedy from lewis See more 04/20/2009 Seen It Review Coming Soon See more 03/09/2009 Yet another Lewis - Tashlin teaming. On Blu-ray.
