Product Description

Product Description

A bumbling bellboy (Jerry Lewis) at the exclusive Fountainebleau in Miami Beach causes havoc wherever he goes, whether through his overenthusiastic valeting or his efforts to please celebrity guests. This film was Lewis' directorial debut, and includes a scene in which he plays himself.

4.0 out of 5 stars Amusing unusual film. 15 July 2001
By zoopy@lycos.com
Format:VHS Tape
An unusual film for Jerry Lewis as there is not a set story line. Just a showcase of side-splitting gags, jokes and Lewis gems. This was his directorial debut which is reflected in a more relaxed crazy style. A must for all fans of Jerry Lewis and an enjoyable video for anyone who recognises true comic genius.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of Jerry's Best Movies! 14 Sep 2003
By A. Williams
Format:VHS Tape
I saw and instantly bought this just after seeing "Four Rooms" when quentin tarrantino himself recommends it! Jerry Lewis' character in this film is i would wager where tarrantino got the idea of the persona for "Ted"! which is an excellent match if you see both of these 2 movies! as for the film itself though.. it is Such a cool film it's terrible i'm not allowed to give more stars! Such amazing filming techniques are used during this film, and lewis' acting is an absolute marvel to watch! for an old film.. there aren't any "old jokes" or "used to death" sequences! this is what today's movie business needs to take heed from! this was the age when actors put themselves in pain to get the laugh or the scene just right! todays actors should learn something!

4.0 out of 5 stars A Beginning 2 Sep 2003
By Mark Ebert - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase
This film occurred when Jerry Lewis needed a summer movie, Paramount wanted to release "Cinderfella", but Lewis insisted that wait for the Christmas season. Therefore, on a shoe-string budget he created his first masterpiece as actor, director, producer, and writer all on one film (with "The Ladies' Man", "The Nutty Professor", and other notables to follow). The film promises--from the beginning--to be about "fun", no more, no less. Indeed, it is pretty much a romp through sketches involving Stanley, a bellboy. Nevertheless, Lewis couldn't help added some social commentary, and the scene where he plays himself is among one of cinema's finest moments. Certainly not his best work--overall--but a great start to what is a lavish solo career.

4.0 out of 5 stars Funny for its time :-) 12 April 2008
By Little Miss Cutey - Published on Amazon.com
Format:DVD
By today's standards, this may not be considered an outrageously funny movie - back in the day, I can see that this would have been hilarious. I really love Jerry Lewis and it's one of the better roles I've seen him in. He doesn't have too much of a dialogue in this - whenever he is playing the bellboy character Stanley, he only whistles and uses his facial expressions to emote his clumsiness.
The only scene where I truly laughed out loud, was when he was in charge of the bellboy desk for a short time and one of the four phones would ring. Do you think he knew which phone to answer? Of course not. Other than that, it was good throughout but just not as funny as I would have hoped. He is a genius for sure, but I prefer him doing his crazy voices. Even so, I'd recommed this to his fans, as I'm sure they'll definately enjoy it.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Bellboy 1 Dec 2007
By Naoma R. Peterson - Published on Amazon.com
Format:DVD
The start of the funny parodies. Every scene is funny, Lewis has very different versatile roles in this movie.
