Jerry Lewis Dressing Room Interview 1 August 1995 Part 3 of 4

[@spaceengineer1452]

I hate it , when the interviewer will not stop talking.

[@Flywithdean]

What a kind, gentle soul who was an impeccable parent…… said no one ever. What a prick

[@ninjabluewings]

This guy had an AMAZING! mind with an INSANE! amount of insight and wisdom, never watched an Interview so honest, revealing or candid, a true MASTERPIECE! full respect to the interview team

[@soapbxprod]

Thanks a million!

[@lisaparsons4124]

A great interview with Jerry Lewis.And Jerry Lewis a awesome actor and a comedian.May Jerry Lewis,RIP💐

[@Baci302]

The man was insane. Dean Martin couldn't deal with him and left him. Jack Benny, who by all accounts treated everyone nicely, also would hated Lewis. So did Bing Crosby.

Interviews with legends like Jerry Lewis are the best things on KZbin I'm running out 🤯

[@miabarry]

lol

[@jessiejames7492]

i respect him for listening to the interviewer and wait for her to finish speaking before he answered. He talks about respect and he gives it.

[@soapbxprod]

jessie james Thanks, jessie- Carole Langer and I had a perfectly wonderful time during the 18 months that we worked to produce his A&E Biography from 1995 to 96. Jerry simply handed us the keys to his archive and left us alone to do our jobs... the result was a nomination for the last Cable Ace Award before cable networks were admitted to the Emmys... :) Here's a link to it- we cannot upload it ourselves due to contract obligations: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z4ekYmaoZpKAjK8 Warmest Regards, Luke Sacher (videographer/editor/writer of Jerry's bio) Praeses & Soapbox Productions Inc.

[@jessiejames7492]

thanks for uploading !

[@soapbxprod]

jessie james Most welcome- and thanks right back to YOU for tuning in. As Jerry loves to say, "If you make a picture and no one goes to see it, no matter how good it is, it doesn't mean a damn thing." :)

[@jessiejames7492]

so right what he said ...because as jerry quoted his father as saying"Youre nothing without them (the fans who came to watch him perform)

[@soapbxprod]

The toughest audiences to satisfy were the Yentas of the old Borscht Belt- Mel Brooks, Red Buttons, Buddy Hackett, Jack Carter, Pat Cooper... they all sharpened their craft at hotels like Brown's and Grossinger's. Mel Brooks would do a routine called "The Man of a thousand faces", and when his act was done, the old ladies would yell at him, "Hey! You said 1000 faces- that was only 96!"

[@pegcage]

I guess the reason a lot of people criticize Jerry and his outspokenness is that he was before the age of political correctness and he never conformed to it as he grew older. He said what he thought at the time. I love his honesty. It does not mean I always agree with what he is saying in these interviews. I cringe sometimes; but he is honest and believes what he says. I would rather listen to him than some politically correct hypocrite lying through his teeth.

[@marym5037]

Mary Cage, the truth is that some Americans are very judgmental, love gossip, and fear and hate people who are different, real, and upfront! It is sad, but true :( they are more comfortable with lies and deception! Will never understand why!

[@marym5037]

@@puppydog12000 I agree with you! It is true! Being upfront while respecting other people's point of view is fundamental! Being upfront does not mean being rude or cruel. I meant that often people are ready to judge others based on a superficial assessment of the other. I worked in the mental field enough to know that people have defense mechanisms developed because of personal traumatic experiences. Employing empathy in our everyday life and interactions with people would do so much good to this world. That's all..

[@williamevans9426]

Regarding the comments at 4:20, I don't really know why but in movie theaters I always stay to watch the full credits roll. I somehow feel the technical crew deserve at least to be recognized in this small way!

[@theshameofthesun]

he give his precious time....Jerry Lewis for the record.....he gave him willingly

[@bloodtypedating]

Finally an interviewer who treated him with the respect he has earned.

[@fazbell]

Also known as "brown-nosing". A sycophant interviewing a psychotic.

[@a5dr3]

He's so interesting to me. Maniacal ego yet really capable of profound kindness. Takes "know it all" to a new level but he actually did kind of know it all.

[@Valkonnen]

The guy hooked a video camera to the viewfinder on the 35 mm movie camera so that they could play back the scenes that they just shot (He was directing AND Starring). It's used on literally EVERY film since then up to today and is called "Video Assist". Talk about necessity being the Mother of invention...This is a great example of how that works.

[@pamelahawley4844]

Martin Scorsese on Jerry Lewis: 'It was like watching a virtuoso pianist at the keyboard' He was the anarchic funnyman who went from comedies with Dean Martin to inspired cinematic brilliance with The Nutty Professor. Martin Scorsese pays tribute to his King of Comedy star The Not-So-Nutty Professor In addition to his varied entertainment, philanthropic and family responsibilities, Jerry has also served as an adjunct professor at the University of Southern California, where he taught a graduate course in film direction. The Total Film Maker, a book based on recordings of 480 hours of his classroom lectures, was published by Random House in 1971. And since the book hit the stands, it became mandatory reading in every university and film school in the United States, as well as Continental Europe. The Films of Jerry Lewis book is one of the most comprehensive studies of one man’s body of work in the motion picture industry. The “Real” Jerry Lewis Behind the pratfalls, the jokes and the public persona, Jerry Lewis is a devoted family man who always carries snapshots of his family in his pockets for luck. The entertainer has a daughter, Danielle, born in 1992, in addition to five sons - Gary, Ron, Scott, Chris and Anthony - and several grandchildren and one great-granddaughter. A frequent MDA Telethon highlight is a performance by Jerry's number-one son and his band -- Gary Lewis and the Playboys -- and the Telethon cameras regularly catch Sam and Danielle sitting in their customary front row seats. It’s also no coincidence that the official Jerry Lewis Web site, www.jerrylewiscomedy.com, is hosted by Jerry’s son, Chris. Jerry is famous for his love of children, and the immense popularity he enjoys among them is hardly surprising. “I get paid for doing what children are punished for,” he reasons. “In doing this, I can help them get rid of their hostility quotient.” Or, as one 14-year-old fan put it: “Jerry is just a nice big kid who makes us laugh. Kids love him because he’s really one of us.” Jerry summed it up himself when he said - in response to the countless well-wishers who wrote to commemorate his 76th birthday in March 2002: “76? You got the birth date right, but the age is wrong! I’m only 9 … remember? Always have been, always will be.” The motto that best expresses Jerry’s ongoing love affair with humanity is this: “I shall pass through this world but once. Any good, therefore, that I can do or any kindness that I can show to any human being, let me do it now. Let me not defer nor neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again.” --- Humanitarian Awards “Jerry Lewis is a man for all seasons, all people and all times. His name has, in the hearts of millions, become synonymous with peace, love, and brotherhood.” The late Secretary of Defense Les Aspin, then a congressman from Wisconsin, penned those words in 1977 in the conclusion of his nomination of Jerry for the Nobel Peace Prize. Never in the history of show business has an entertainer been so honored. In 1984, the government of France officially recognized that country's legendary admiration of Jerry Lewis by giving him its two most distinguished awards. First, Lewis was made a Commander in the Order of Arts and Letters, and was extolled by French Minister of Culture Jack Lang for his “human qualities and generosity. You are a child’s friend, and a model for adults.” Later that same year, Jerry was inducted into the Legion of Honor by the decree of President Francois Mitterand. Legion membership honors individuals whose accomplishments demonstrate extraordinary public service. Back in the United States, on June 8, 1985, the Defense Department presented Jerry with its highest civilian award - the Medal for Distinguished Public Service. The citation that accompanies the engraved gold medal reads, in part: “His service has had a profound effect on the youth of our country, on men and women in uniform today and their children, and on those children who shall one day serve our country in its defense.” In 1956, Lewis began hosting an annual Labor Day Telethon for the Muscular Dystrophy Association, a role which he held for over 40 years. In 1977, he became the only comic ever nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize and in 1985, he received a United States Department of Defense Medal for Distinguished Public Service. In March 2006, the French Minister of Culture awarded Lewis the ‘Legion of Honor.’ Lewis received the National Association of Broadcaster's Distinguished Service Award in April 2015. Lewis was a life-long philanthropist, and raised over $2 billion for his Muscular Dystrophy Association's Charity, Jerry's Kids. He was honored by not just one, but two stars on the Hollywood. In December 1996, the American Medical Association presented its Lifetime Achievement Awards to Jerry and MDA “for significant and lasting contributions to the health and welfare of humanity.” Jerry was honored for his decades of dedication to MDA, becoming only the fifth person in AMA history to receive this award. As National Chairman of MDA, Jerry has devoted two-thirds of his lifetime to the effort to eradicate neuromuscular diseases. His unflagging, year-round work for this cause has endeared him to millions. Under Jerry’s leadership, the Association has been - and will continue to be - the recognized leader in the worldwide fight against these diseases. Legendary Entertainer One of the most successful performers in show business - with worldwide box office gross receipts of his films in excess of $800 million - Jerry Lewis has received global acclaim for his unique ability and style with both comedy and drama. Best known for his comedic genius, he's considered among the elite in the history of comedy. He has an exceptional feel for comic timing and possesses all the other unique qualities of a great clown. Critic Harriet Van Horne described Jerry’s screen persona as “a sort of witless genius,” while Hollywood director Leo McCarey called Lewis “the Pied Piper of the business, the heir to the mantle of Charlie Chaplin and Harold Lloyd.” In 1991, Jerry received two impressive honors as the show business industry recognized his lifetime of achievement. On January 13, he received the Comic Life Achievement Award during cable television’s annual ACE Awards. The National Association of Broadcasters paid tribute to Jerry by inducting him into the Broadcast Hall of Fame on April 17. Jerry was inducted into the International Humor Hall of Fame in 1992. And on February 22, 1998, Jerry received the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Comedy Hall of Fame. In 1999, legendary film director Martin Scorsese presented Jerry Lewis with a career Golden Lion award at the Venice International Film Festival. Lewis was honored as “an extraordinary example of the total filmmaker: scriptwriter, director and protagonist of his films, therefore fully responsible for his work.” He kept giving and giving and giving to us. He loved so much. We are so grateful to him and his life.

[@julietteyork3721]

You’d think he was Gen Patton talking about saving the world from the Nazis. The over-inflated sense of self importance was problematic both for his own happiness and for the people he mistreated. Yes, he was a gifted artist but the over-inflated egos of most celebrities, enabled by sycophantic fans, employees, hangers-on and journalists, are unhealthy for all concerned. To be clear, it’s not the content so much as the attitude that’s problematic. If he had conveyed the same content without the obnoxious arrogance it would have been better for him as well as those around him.

[@denisdoran5540]

What did he say?

[@Dribbler1]

I have watched several interviews now and it seems to me like every interviewer is walking on eggshells making sure not to say something he may not like or agree with. He never does anything to soften the mood. He had a huge ego and I feel he wanted to portray a super cool character to be as far as away from the fool he played on screen. He always makes sure to put Dean Martin down letting everyone know he was the man that made it all happen. She the interviewer even puts Dean down to put Jerry up to please him...it’s annoying as hell!

Truth

[@chrisfreeman9960]

A long time ago, my orthodontist said he liked Jetty Lewis, until he really began thinking he was funny. Which, I believe, meant that at one time, Jerry Lewis was simply a very funny goofball, a crackup, and that was it. Then, later on, he began giving people the serious, deep psychology of his life, his humor, why he thought he was so funny, and that just killed the previous experience that people had of just the simple pleasure of enjoying a very funny man.

[@HappyQuailsLC]

His attitude is something that was frequently remarked upon, even to the point of calling him "an egomaniac". I grew up in NY and I think all the rattling lozenge sucking was a sign that he had a sore throat. So he might have also been feeling unwell. It just surprises me that he wasn't objective enough to understand how much it would adversely effect the recording. It may be that this interview was not intended for broadcast. Perhaps this was the format upon which the content of written articles were drawn.

I don't know him or his family , but I don't think that he didn't love his mom. I really believe that as a child , he was always left alone and the love of a mother can't be compared to nothing else in a child's life so he might have resented her for not being very affectionate! However, his need for appreciation, love, and respect made him feel closer to his dad probably because his dad taught him that he could get the love he wanted from a lot of people by learning how to perform for them! He learned a way to feel acknowledged, loved, and respected through acting and performing and he was immensely talented to achieve that! Children need love and affection! It is of paramount importance! :(
