When I was a kid, I loved the movie “Artists And Models. Watched the whole movie last week on youtube. There was a radio show host here, the late Joe Finsn, who said many times that Lewis was a complete prick to be around.

saw him at the Family Tree restaurant on Shelter island in San Diego 1968, signed autographs to anyone who walked up and asked for one.

i always thought his comedy was sophomoric but his work with the telethon, lifeworthy. I tend to agree with a notable exception: His movie "The Nutty Professor" was a good piece of work and funny. And better than the Eddie Murphy version.

I read somewhere that Lewis is no longer affiliated with the MDA. Did he retire or was there a falling out?

Their nightclub act was much funnier than their movies and the Colgate comedy hour was great when they ad libbed.

Can somebody explain to us why the Muscular Dystrophy foundation quit asking him to be the host for their annual TV telethon?

Great book by grouchy Marx’s son. You can still get it on Amazon.
Talks about him being an ass to people.
Dean never paid back the people that helped him.

My daughter loves all things Cinderella, the story, not just the Disney movies. Last week I rented Cinderfella for her on Netflix. What an original idea, to do Cinderella with a guy, instead of a girl.

If you can somehow find it, I would recommend that you watch THE KING OF COMEDY with Lewis and Robert DeNiro. As I understand it, the director told Lewis just to ‘be himself’ so he improvised many of his lines. In it and in his interviews, I can see a young man who found early success that poisoned his ego - making him an arrogant prick at times. But, he’s a bigger philanthropist than I’ll ever be! Hope he’s well.
