Jerry Lewis was no ego maniac he was one of the hardest working entertainers in Hollywood i love every movie he ever did what an amazing person he was he could do it all RIP Mr.Lewis 🙏 thank you for all the happy and funny moments
You’re totally missing the point in your negativity and pettiness. He was talking about the fact that he was multifaceted in his work like those other men were. That he wrote, directed, produced, designed the sets, fixed the sound, invented a video machine so he could make sure the shots were correct… he could sing, he could do a lot of things that’s what he meant. The haters in the comments will always be small petty negative hateful twerps.
He was. He was a superb physical clown and comic, who changed American Showbusiness aged 20. But the buck stopped with him,not Dean Martin. Being a great showman brings with it problems. Incidentally, he knew both Chaplin and Keaton and Stan Laurel (particularly Laurel, who loved him and imparted his wisdom to Lewis), all greatly respected him and saw him often. He actually achieved great things in his working life, he just wasn't a perfect human being. Nor ever claimed to be.
@@charlesheck6812Well said. This man needs a retrospective look at his life and work. He wasn't perfect, we know the latest accusations against and I do not doubt the women who came forward. His life in showbiz was extraordinary - Sinatra was the same poverty,success, showbiz, pimps, whores, women, the Mafia, Hollywood, Vegas and the world. Marriages, kids and mistakes. What a life and what a comic. A great one.
People are complicated , that's the best definition I can come up with. Although he did a lot of great work for MD, he was in real life, very mean to those around him. Why did he behave like that is a question there is no easy answer.
The fact is, Lewis went out of his way to be protective of those around him and made sure the unsung behind-the-scenes heroes got the recognition and respect they deserved. You have no idea what you’re even talking about.
@@charlesheck6812 What a joke, he wouldn't even look at those working around him let alone protect them. He deserted his own kids. You have no idea what you're talking about. He was a miserable old fool.
@@charlesheck6812 so…the woman I saw interviewed recently saying how he asssaulted them in his lockdown dressing room….i don’t even want to say what he did…look it up on the documentary I saw…they were well known woman starring in pictures at the time….sure…I loved his movies…to think that was the whole picture…..think what you want…there’s no reason these actress made up such a horrible story…they were visibly upset……if it was you…how would you react?
On many occasions he admitted he was an addict. He took 13 Percodan a day for years which includes 1974-1979. He has no recollection of anything he did in this time period.
Saw how he locked in a woman in his dressing room, hard to believe he did what he did…..and goes on like it’s ok……he did a lot of great films…but don’t forget the other side…..story told by multiple woman……
Exhibit A of what happens when a person tries to set up boundaries in order to protect themselves. The way the interviewer actually started admonishing JL like he was a child and laying guilt trips on him when he talked about performing during the interview pissed me off.
The more I learn about him, the more I dislike him. This was a person who was so wrapped up in themselves and didn't give a fig about anyone else. He did raise a lot of money for Muscular Dystrophy. But, he was not a nice person.
I totally disagree, he had 5 sons with his first wife and he disinherited all of them. None of them received one penny from him. Not to mention he was a pervert and a rapist. He was a disgrace of a man.
Absolutely correct. It's baffling that more people don't spot it. The dead giveaway is the rambling making-it-up-as-he-goes-along nature of his speech. Every interview is the same
Amazing man. One of my favorites. Interviewer must have been a clown to actually expect Jerry to 'turn it on' at a drop of a dime....especaially after JUST explaining how he thought that ('switching context') was disrespectful.
Great interviewer , great interview , interviewer not afraid to ask tough questions .....
Great interviewer yes I agree
@@ronnie4639 What's his name?
Jerry Lewis was no ego maniac he was one of the hardest working entertainers in Hollywood i love every movie he ever did what an amazing person he was he could do it all RIP Mr.Lewis 🙏 thank you for all the happy and funny moments
Love Jerry.....he was the GOAT of comedy....RIP
he was unfunny and annoying....you must be easily amused.
Dude said you're an egomaniac and the man goes on to say he's in the company of Chaplin, Laurel and Keaton...No ego at all apparently....
He wasn't wrong.

Is it possible he was suffering from bi-polar? He was very ill during this time and sure had chip of his shoulder
@@charlesheck6812 so…the woman I saw interviewed recently saying how he asssaulted them in his lockdown dressing room….i don’t even want to say what he did…look it up on the documentary I saw…they were well known woman starring in pictures at the time….sure…I loved his movies…to think that was the whole picture…..think what you want…there’s no reason these actress made up such a horrible story…they were visibly upset……if it was you…how would you react?
What an impossible, fascinating man

JERRY LEWIS

91 AÑOS.
Ya think he could have put on pants for the interview
He had beautiful legs and rightfully showed them off. Are you jealous of his legs?
@@jerrylewisthekid5479really dumb answer 🤦🏻♀️
Hahaha 😂 he's pantless 😅
he’s backstage relaxing before a performance… He can do what he wants you petty pointless little specks.
You don't know why he wasn't wearing pants..he is not in his boxers at least. Jerry was very sick during this time
jerry took thing s with him to the grave but he's told a lot of amazing things about Hollywood and just the entertainment business.
Nice outfit and posture
Saw how he locked in a woman in his dressing room, hard to believe he did what he did…..and goes on like it’s ok……he did a lot of great films…but don’t forget the other side…..story told by multiple woman……
I like the Interviewer.

you don’t know Jack squat take your negativity, where somebody appreciates it
Yes, he was a creep.
Jerry was beautiful and so misunderstood
When you really learn about him, you'll find out different.
He was an asshole, made some funny movies, though
I didn’t know Joe Louis was Jerry Lewis’ dad!
is he playing with it during the interview?
He's rubbing his thigh muscle.
were you playing with it as you wrote that ridiculous comment?
I respect him a lot for his telethon work and I think he's a good man
I totally disagree, he had 5 sons with his first wife and he disinherited all of them. None of them received one penny from him. Not to mention he was a pervert and a rapist. He was a disgrace of a man.
“ he was still working for me”…” I was the catalyst”….egomaniacs don’t talk like that
if you can’t see he was being facetious you seriously need metal help
@@charlesheck6812 if you can't see I was being sarcastic you need mental help.
Could at least put on some pants.
you could at least practice some manners
sociopath ...
dimwit.
Absolutely correct. It's baffling that more people don't spot it. The dead giveaway is the rambling making-it-up-as-he-goes-along nature of his speech. Every interview is the same
Seems like a braggart who is absolutely full of himself. He disregarded his kids and yet pontificates himself as a " great man"
grim indeed. I hope you get yourself a life.
Amazing man. One of my favorites. Interviewer must have been a clown to actually expect Jerry to 'turn it on' at a drop of a dime....especaially after JUST explaining how he thought that ('switching context') was disrespectful.
I dont like the interviewer.
At peace due to Vicodin
Hey,
Vicodin
is a MIRACLE drug,
it's the person who misuses
it that's the problem. They RUIN
it for the people who actually need it.
what drugs are you on? Obviously not ones that raise your IQ.
@@skelter1153dumb and judgmental
Bah hahahahahaha weeeell
you’re truly a sick petty individual
Place, opportunity, and time, if you want something there is alway a yes man or women that will it what ever you need.
👎
Is he high on prednisone?
