Kaye was a great comedian. He was one of the many who showed it was possible to attain laughs without stooping to crude humor.

I think my favorite film of his is the 1961 WWII comedy/spy thriller “On the Double”

I got it on DVD after it was finally released after 50 years. If someone ever puts it up on youtube, I plan to make it a future MFASA.

He was one of the many who showed it was possible to attain laughs without stooping to crude humor...for sure - Kaye, Hope, Skelton, Lucille Ball - all were essentially laughing at themselves, or at least the silly characters they created - nothing like today, when socalled humor consists almost entirely of poking fun at the foibles of others, as though the attackers were beyond reproach and criticism - what a small-minded, venomous bunch today's "comedians" really are.....
