## Description

My Friend Irma One croons. The other cavorts. Fans couldn't get enough of them! Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis made their crowd-pleasing film debuts in My Friend Irma, a 1949 funfest based on the long-running radio show. The guys are juice-bar operators who get a shot at new careers when a self-proclaimed manager discovers that Martin is better at squeezing out a musical "C" than Vitamin C. Their story intersects with the antics of Irma (Marie Wilson), the likable airhead who meddles in the romantic life of her roommate (Diana Lynn). Irma may be a queen of loopiness, but it's Lewis who walks off as America's clown prince. Exclaimed the Los Angeles Examiner: "There just hasn't been anything like him on land, sea or celluloid." My Friend Irma Goes West Hilarious sequel to My Friend Irma!

    Martin & Lewis Collection, Vol. 1
  

*by H***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 12, 2009*

The Martin & Lewis Collection, Vol. 1 concentrates on the early part of their career. Some of these are uneven at best, Martin & Lewis were still trying to figure what translated well to the screen, this included the writers too. When it comes to Jerry Lewis you love him or you hate him. Personally, I liked him more when I was younger, his antics & mugging are a little harder to take as an adult.You can see their progression as actors as the set moves into their career. By the time you get to the last film of this set they have improved immensely, becoming actors, even.My Friend Irma***This is a loose translation of a radio program in which Martin & lewis were inserted. Certainly, they aren't the stars but they make an incredible impact in their debut. In this one Martin is trying to become a nightclub singer (really?) & is managed by Irma's boyfriend. Lewis is an inept employee of an orange juice establishment. It's pretty thin stuff. Lewis dominates the scenes with his over-the-top antics. Martin is more than adequate as an actor.My Friend Irma Goes West***By the time this sequel was made Martin & Lewis were the stars & the whole original premise of the radio show becomes secondary or is scrapped. It is interesting to see Las Vegas so young in its life yet to have all of its bright lights. Martin is going west assuming he has been awarded a movie contract & the other characters are along for the Lewis rollercoaster. Even with only his second film Lewis is already polarizing the audience: They think he's the biggest fool or the gretest comedian ever.Sailor Beware***This was the team's first true starring vehicle. It's somewhat of an improvement but by now the Martin & Lewis characters are set. Martin is the smooth ladies' man & crooner, Lewis is inept, shy, sickly & sometimes allergic to women. Corinne Calvet makes an appearance as an ice queen that no man can get at. Highlight of the film is Lewis preparing for his boxing match. The routine in the locker room is hilarious as is the scene when they get in the ring. Truly classic.That's My Boy**There's so little that's believable in this film it's a near waste of time. Eddie Mayehoff ii his screen debut is nothing short of a ham. His character is nothing more than a caricature. Martin & Lewis are unbelievable as high school graduates about to enter college, none of it rings true. Once again Lewis walks off with the highlights as he becomes the hero by winning a football game.Jumping Jacks****By this time Martin & Lewis are becoming actors. The service comedy routine had already gone well twice with the team so a third one was done. Martin & Lewis have become paratroopers which is a great setup for Lewis: How much funnier can it get when a man can't even fold his own parachute when his life is at stake?The Stooge****This film actually gives the team a script where they prove their acting mettle. Martin wants to make it on his own as a singer but he's too vanilla without a comedic partner. He ditches one to go to solo but he bombs. He's then teamed up with Lewis & they become a sensation. Martin doesn't want to give Lewis credit in the team or their success nor does he believe Lewis is the reason he's successful. The Stooge allows the team to be more themselves & has some quality moments.Scared Stiff***This film is a remake of Bob Hope's The Ghostbreakers. It's not just a remake, it's almost the same film. The only difference is the Martin & Lewis parts are, essentially, the Bob Hope character split into two parts. It's a good vehicle for the team.The Caddy****This film along with Jumping Jacks are the highlights of this set. Lewis is the son of a golfing great & has great potential himself except he can't play in front of people. Martin is the son of a fisherman but gets seasick. Lewis is engaged to Martin's sister though Martin & Lewis haven't met one another yet. Lewis is, of course, inept as a department store employee & has a scene where he wreaks havoc in the store. Then Lewis gets the idea of starting a golf instruction school. Martin becomes his protegee & they have immediate success. Golf greats have cameos in the film. This role for Lewis is actually the most mature of his roles in this set. This is also the film that Features the song "That's Amore".This set has good value & is great for Lewis fans.
