The best thing that Jerry Lewis has done in 30+ years but Lee Evans steals this one. Excellent music, great cast and non formulaic plot make this a surprise. Enjoy.
One of my absolute favorite films!
One of the few films that I have on Laser Disc, VHS, and now I'm buying this on iTunes! The entire cast gives a brilliant performance in this wonderful story of love, loss, pain, and (of course) comedy. Excellent film! Worth every cent!
