Jerry Lewis. He was on TCM last night in Scared Stiff, a remake of Bob Hope’s Ghost Breakers.
When the scene describing zombies comes up, Bob Hope says..”You mean like Democrats?”
Lewis says...”You mean like husbands?”
Lewis was also in one scene as Itchy McScratchy in LI’L ABNER, where he is “stupified” by Stupifyin’ Jones (Julie Newmar).

And who can forget stopping Phil Silvers who later picks up Don Knotts. Must be seen in Wide Screen to see Don’s reactions upon seeing the helicopter behind him and Silvers.

Then the cabbies, Rochester and Peter Falk. I notice the scene where Rochester lands in the lap of Lincoln has been cut from the film in just the last few years.

MOMMA! Reminds me of my mother-in-law, and Sylvester reminds me of my brother-in-law(If you know him he probably owes you money).

” Jonathan Winters destroying the gas station”

I’m laughing just thinking about it!


For me, it was Jonathan Winters pedaling that little girl's bike.

Jerry Lewis wasn’t it? I thought he was going to be in the movie a lot more. I was a kid waiting for him. Then I remember being disappointed afterwards.

The entire tone of the movie was set at the beginning when Jimmy Durante (The Smiler) passes on and ‘kicks the bucket.’

I thought those trees were cut down. There was a video on youtube that revisited all of the sites where the scenes were taken to show what they look like today.

I love the part where Spencer Tracey asks Schwartz to get him some coffee, and the entire world stops to watch and listen as Schwartz delightfully walks to the coffee pot.

Who wouldn’t love Sylvester? And Buster Keaton? Would love to have seen Lucy and the Marx Brothers in it.

Too bad Stanley Kramer was such a Lefty.

Oh yes, Marvin Kaplan died not too long ago.

Trivia question: who is driving the car and runs over Spencer Tracy’s hat?

Jerry Lewis!

It’s a big screen stunt film. Some models, no computers.
