Dean Martin & Jerry Lewis Collection - Vol. 2
Surely even the French, with their
legendary love of all things Jerry Lewis, will be
sated by the Dean Martin & Jerry Lewis Collection:
Vol. 2, a three-disc package containing five
comedy-musicals released on DVD for the first time.
It would be a supreme stretch to call any of the
five films in question (You're Never Too Young,
Artists and Models, Living It Up, Pardners, and
Hollywood or Bust) a classic, but then, anyone
looking for challenging storylines and deep
characterizations probably wouldn't be here in the
first place. |

Dean Martin & Jerry Lewis Collection - Vol. 1A
nightclub act with a handsome singer and an anarchic
monkey-boy became a potent box-office force in the
early 1950s. Although their wild live antics never
translated intact to the screen, Dean Martin and
Jerry Lewis were an instant movie hit; they had two
films in the box-office top ten of 1951, and another
two in the top ten of 1952. Paramount repays this
effort with its Dean Martin & Jerry Lewis
Collection, Volume One, which gathers most of their
early efforts at the studio. |

Dean Martin and Lewis Colgate Comedy
Martin and Lewis were an American
comedy team, comprising singer Dean Martin (as the
"straight man") and comedian Jerry Lewis. The pair
first met in 1944; their debut as a duo occurred at
Atlantic City's 500 Club on July 24/25, 1946.
Before they teamed up they were both stand up
comics. They worked together in nightclubs, on radio
(starting in 1949) and in television and films. In
the team's later years, it was no longer billed by
the two men's surnames alone, as in their early
radio work, but by their full names: "Dean Martin
and Jerry Lewis." These separate identities helped
them launch successful solo careers after the team's
dissolution. |

Jerry Lewis - The Legendary Jerry Collection
This 10-DVD boxed set is a delight for anyone
afflicted with a susceptibility to the fractured
antics of Jerry Lewis, or "Le Roi du Crazy" to the
French. This set emphasizes Lewis's busy period
after the breakup with Dean Martin, when he was
exerting more influence over his vehicles (six of
the titles are directed by Jerry himself) and almost
single-handedly keeping Paramount Pictures propped
up with his box-office take. The set curiously
includes one of the Martin-Lewis pictures, 1953's
The Stooge, which has echoes of the real-life
vibe between Jerry and Dino. |
