In reply to: Wayne D 's message, "R.I.P. Jerry Lewis - one of the funniest ever. What was your favorite Jerry Lewis movie? Mine was "The Errand Boy"." on 22:35:28 08/20/17 Sun

It's difficult for me to pick a single 'best' movie. Would have to be one of his earlier films (with Dean Martin).

Without actually addressing the question, I am very mindful of how much humor has changed (evolved?) in TV and movies. Much of Mr. Lewis's humor was of the physical site-gag type, like Lucy stomping grapes or Dick Van Dyke tripping over a couch. Today's sitcoms don't really do that. They don't even do setup and punch line so much. It has to be one-liners (quips). I do miss the older style of humor.

So now to address the question: "That's My Boy"
