Wow... What a gem to have this (even with the less-than-stellar sound quality). And that finale is INCREDIBLE!!! Thank you for preserving & posting this!!!
This clip shows perfectly, what the big deal about Martin and Lewis was and why it could never translate to any movie they've made. Their act was one for the clubs and could never have worked in a film. They were the best at their time and this clip proves how much fun they had doing their thing. Pure magic!
Oh, but they did work on film. They made 16 movies in 8 years. Their films, in adjusted dollars, grossed over 2 BILLION dollars. They were in the top ten of box office stars in 6 of those 8 years and in 1952, they were number one.
and Jerry is and always will be the King of Comedy!! Everyone is good at holding a glass and a cigarette! But being a GENIUS is very different! But you Americans are too mediocre to understand that.
I've always wondered what it would have been like to be there at one of their early shows and this is as close as I could ever get. Thanks for sharing.
according to his book, Jerry felt as if he had caught lightning in a bottle when he first connected with Dean on stage. Ultimately, this Copa show became the hottest ticket in town and there are plenty of clips showing them leaning out the window to Beatle-esque screaming fans. He was an original who brought comedy to a new level either with broad physical gesture or subtle tossed off phrases [hello, stale ones]. He loomed large in my childhood and his passing has given me the sick feeling that the world is changing too quickly. RIP Jerry and say hi to Dean for me.
j v I agree that Jerry's slapstick style of comedy was indeed very physical (all those pratfalls which unfortunately caused him a great deal of pain and suffering later in his life), but I have to say that subtlety is not a word I would ever associate with his brand of humour. I myself much prefer Deans often very clever use of wordplay, his hilarious ad-libs when something went wrong in a sketch, or simply his facial expressions when reacting to other comedians jokes.
Say what you want about their movies, TV appearances or individual carreers. They were TRULY the KINGS of the nightclub circuit. THANK YOU so much for sharing !!! A GEM to see and ENJOY.
They were just beautiful! Fabulous. Nobody before them or since them did what they did. They made you care about them and their partnership. They were stunning.
Martin & Lewis was a great blend of singing & sketch comedy. Quite possibly they originated that combination as an art form. What I find interesting is the technical limitation of doing an entire show wile sharing only one microphone. There's some ingeniousness going on imposed by that limitation.
They were great together and apart. I remember them on the Colgate Comedy Hour in the early 50's. I was a little boy at the time. They made me laugh. All the entertainers that appeared on the Comedy Hour were good, from the old school. They were there to entertain, how we need them today.
Growing up in the 80s. Often speak about some of the greats and how people had to have been there to witness it my meds and such was the case with these two back in this time. Phenomenal attraction
This is a great video! Thanks for posting. I was always a huge fan of Jerry Lewis growing up, but as an adult found out that he was one of the biggest jerks in show business. Was heartbroken to hear it from reliable sources and first hand accounts.
Interesting to see some of the bits Dean later did with the Rat Pack and how differently they played with Jerry delivering the punch lines instead of Dean.
That's true, to me the jokes were somehow funnier when Dean did them because he had a different style of delivery. I feel he was a better fit when working with Frank and, especially, Sammy because the humour wasn't so in-your-face. As I say, that's just my personal opinion and I'm sure there are many who will disagree with me, which is fair enough. As the expression goes; to each his own.
What this clip shows is the difference between how live shows could differ from what Middle America heard on the radio, or saw on TV or the movies from the same act. With quips about "checking the rubbers" and kissing the girl back, well, if you aren't able to see clips like this, you might think Americans were generally very repressed during the 1950s. I'd like to see similar clips from earlier in the Martin and Lewis run, but I'm guessing this is as close as I'm likely to get (sigh). Recommended read, by the way: Dino by Nick Tosches.
Yes, i wish there were more recordings of their live shows. Their Colgate comedy hours were chock full of a homoerotic humor that was so ahead of its time, that I've got to assume their live acts were at least ten times wilder.
Dean strokes Jerry's face at the end of the show and Jerry's smile in response. Here they should have already "hated each other" but I don't see any hatred. Dean was still tender and affectionate with Jerry, their mutual love was still all in that last caress. I still do NOT believe the feud was real.
This was a hard working act making it look easy. It was intricate utilizing multiple talents in precision and knowing how to recover a fumble with great humor. Timing down to the music arrangements that were impeccable. For that era they were ultra sophisticated and they each grew with the times. Would have been nice if they could have done reunions with new material. Look at the parody inserted “From Here to Eternity” a well timed topical sketch for the times that worked like a good SNL sketch as the others

From the beginning M and L was about the incredibly cool nightclub singer being interrupted by various idiots. Incredible live and on tv live. Movies hit and miss.
Well, I've played it back several times and as near as I can tell Jerry is singing ' chicken fried rice, corn pone, black eyed peas and everything nice' Now, as a Brit, I have to admit that the line is puzzling to me, but I THINK they might be Southern style meals. I have heard of black eyed peas, but I have no idea what corn pone is. But then again, I don't suppose anyone living south of the Mason Dixon Line have ever heard of such London delicacies as pie and mash (which is delicious) or jellied eels (which... well, isn't 😝)
Same here, I have played it over a few times and I am afraid to even guess at what Jerry is saying, since they were allowed to talk dirty and make dirty jokes so who knows? But thank you for helping me figure this out :) and yes I do know what pie and mash is and it is very delicious, unlike jellied eels.
Dean Martin, pure elegance, class, and a voice as smooth as silk. Jerry’s talent in my opinion was best behind the scenes, writing , directing. His slapstick humor of ridiculous faces, mugging for the camera, pratfalls is more shock humor than a thinking persons comedy. We see he was a great humanitarian to everyone who could see it and praise him for it. Behind the scenes he was a bitter, spiteful vicious father, who would disown his children on a whim. I could watch hours of his work, and not crack as much as a giggle . His last film, Max Rose was a dramatic masterpiece. He was spot on in his performance of a husband who believed he was wronged by his late wife, only to find out he wasn’t. Watching the movie and knowing what we know about his private life, I wonder if it was an epiphany of sorts . Ostracizing his children for no reason but his own imagination and blind hate.
Michael L. Edmonds I think maybe because his kind of childish slapstick humour became more difficult to sustain as he grew older. What is seen as funny in the antics of a skinny young kid simply becomes awkward and even embarrassing behaviour in a grown man of fifty or sixty. Plus, of course, audience tastes simply changed over the years and Jerry’s brand of humour just went out of style for a lot of people. I feel that as time went on the main thing that really kept him in the public eye, at least in America, were his annual telethons (which were really just not known about outside of the States)
Love their Movies growing up.? And even after they broke up.? Deans Movies with the Duke,? and Jerry's Comedy Movies, also.? Jerry is 90 Yrs Old & still going strong.?
+MyREDTAIL ... Jerry was going strong till 4 months ago when he die at age 91on August 20, 2017. Loved everything these 2 did together and by themselves. They both did great by themselves and together and now they are together again.
It was the little off scripted,snide jokes that made them funny....two New Yorkers with the sarcastic sense of humour... There's nothing like it in the world
That's not what Dean said ! He said ( #1 the best thing that ever happened to me was meeting Jerry Lewis #2 meeting my wife Jeanne. Dean never said a bad word about Jerry
The boxer bit Jerry does starting at 27:00 was totally ripped off by some recent comedian (would have to do a lot of searching to find his name). The voice is the same and he'll get stuck repeating a syllable of a word until punched and then finishes the word.
Jerry's character, Robert E Lee Pruett, was actually based on the part played by Montgomery Clift in the film From Here to Eternity in which he co-starred with Frank Sinatra in the previous year. Clifts character refused to box any more because he had accidentally killed his last opponent in the ring. The 'Fatso' referred to by Dean was played in the film by Ernest Borgnine and was a sadistic Sergeant in charge of the stockade. Interestingly, Dean would also play opposite Montgomery Clift (and Marlon Brando) in his first serious, and successful, film role The Young Lions after he broke up with Jerry.
iVenge Don’t forget this was a nightclub performance in front of a more sophisticated audience. People expected it to be more risqué than what they saw on TV. Comedians (unless of course they are known to be ‘children’s’ entertainers) have always been more ‘blue’ in front of a live adult audience than they are on radio or TV, which by definition of being broadcast into peoples homes will obviously be heard by a family audience.
Sten Wilkinson It's a song called 'You're Not Sick, You're Just In Love' which was a duet sung by Ethel Merman and Donald O'Connor in the film Call Me Madam. The film was released just a year before this show, in 1953.
I fell in love with this duo when I was five. The movie was "Money From Home". I've waited 54 years to see this. Thank you.
