A comic I grew up with and one of my favourites all my life, despite corny in the last few decades, I will have nostalgic memories especially his movies with Dean Martin. Age 91. Robin.

I always enjoyed his movies. He never got his artistic due in my opinion. Mostly written off as a goofy slapstick comedian but some of his movies were highly innovative. Think about someone today doing a movie like "The Bellboy" in which he has no dialogue. I was surprised to read about the criticism of his charitable work. I guess no good deed goes unpunished.

One of the best comic actors ever... Thank you, Jerry.

I agree with you, apart from the fact that I definetely prefer him in his artistic later career alone where I find him more mature as a comic..^&grin
