I've never ever liked a single black and White movie accept the Apartment but when I saw this one I was dying of laughter when I saw it. Dean Martin was sure lucky too have Jerry Lewis with him he's a Great singer but an O.K actor especially in comedies. This was the first Jerry Lewis movie i've ever seen and I'm happy I saw it cause now I want to see every single one So far i've seen The Caddy, The Bellboy, Hollywood or bust, The Nutty Professor, Family Jewels and Boeing, Boeing. The Best part I find is when Jerry gets drunk at the party to stop Dean from drinking. Good Stuff. 10/10
