I think doing a movie about Dean and Jerry is nearly impossible, because they were made famous by their personal images, facial expressions, and voices, so people would never want to see imitations of them.
I absolutely ADORE Sean Hayes and Jeremy Northam both, and they do very good jobs as well as they can in this movie...but it's a crappy ROLE to be cast in. They're never going to be as good as the actual people or make it believable :/ That's just the nature of the role, unfortunately.
I actually dont mind the casting for Dean Martin, i mean, personally i dont think they could ever find someone to play Dean and make it believable but i think Jeremy Northam seems more believable than most would be. I just dont think they portrayed Dean correctly...maybe thats just me. But i dont think thats the actors fault.
i hate it when people say they dont like this movie they need to relize that these actors are good and bought their best to the movie but they are nowhere near the dean martin and jerry lewis in my opinion they did a very good job and didnt try to portray something false some biographical movies try and put things in the movie that is nowhere near what happened they didnt do that in this one and i am very happy they didnt
@AnonymousRogue No Jeremy is not singing in the movie, he's lip singing. But if you'd like to HEAR him Sing Type in Jeremy Northam song in youtube. They have songs of his from GOsford Park.
Jerry was somewhat of a consultant on the film (he also gave his personal approval of it as well), but not all of it: this is why there are contradictions and certain "fictional elements" tying the chronology of the team's rise and fall together. Similar "biopics" on Lucille Ball and Jackie Gleason, also broadcast on the network, had the same problem.
Yeah i know, even so, Dean also hated the martin and lewis films cuz he was always the bad guy then became good to save the poor kid (Jerry) and also Jerry only being in the spotlight..Jer even said " i couldnt last up to 2 weeks, he lasted 10 years"
lol yea all the characterizatons are off, lol it just makes me mad that people actually think this is how they were. Someday , a great director will cast good actors well enough to play them, and get ti right this time for heavens sakes lol
yea seriously, he acts like the 9 yr old kid during the whole thing lol its an act dummy, Jerry even said, hes the one who caused the break-up because he expected Dean to follow his rules and ways-"sign this, do this"...and he had no right,and he even said it. jerry off screen was the most sharp business man and the most selfish and sensitive one . Jerrys ex-wife patti quoted " My husband would take a bad sunset personally" and ALSO the fights started long before 1955..
Yeah i know how Tina is, and not trying to be too disrespect, but it just irritates me.
I mean i understand to an extent, but you would think these people would wanna keep the memories alive you know?
Like that 'Together Again' tour, last time they were all really together. Thats got to be some classic, great footage. You see maybe a 5 minute clip of the concert pop up every now and then.....but i hear the reason thats never been released has something to do with family.
Honestly, Noone could pull of Jerry, when we see Jerry, we see the 9yr old kid and its believeable cuz we do forget were watching a man in his mid 20's. Jim carrey does catch Jerry in his later years but no1 can pull off the little 9 yr old..at least i dont think...i dont think anyone could pull off jerry period lol
Lets hope so.. i love how i get thumbs down for commenting this..people obviously dont know the act of martin and lewis...in the movie they portray dean as an asshole and jerry as a dumbass when actually jerry was the mind behind the operation and dean was a sweetie pie lol but in the movie the acts are all over the place...i feel like they never seen a martin and lewis clip
Martin (Northam), already a rising young singing sensation, was smooth and self-assured, yet emotionally detached from everyone around him. The notorious ladies man, with his trademark cigarette in one hand and a drink in the other, embraced the carefree life of celebrity from the get-go. But success didn't come as easily for the self-doubting Lewis (Hayes), who spent years chasing fame and adulation with a comedy act with little success. It wasn't until Lewis, desperate for acceptance,
this movie sucked so bad i especially hated the fact how they made sean hayes eyes brown when his eyes are greena dn jerry lewis' eyes are fuckin green
The year is 1943...and lewis was born in 1926, he had a wife and a baby at 17 already? I thought they didnt get together until 46 or 47? Ohhh the confusion!
@LethalDvon He was married at 18 and his first wife had their son when he was 19. They were divorced in the early 80's and he remarried, that's probably what you're thinking of.
This is when I realize that I watch too much of Martin and Lewis. When I only see the dude playing Jerry light a cigarette, and see the pinkie ring. LOL!
@MrCorndogEater So he's English, that about the same thing. A waspy British actor playing a , very cool dark Italian American singer just didn't look right. The one thing I love the most about Martin and Lewis was, you could see that one was Italian the other was Jewish. I don't see that with these two waspy actors.
@MrCorndogEater What the %&*??? what part of my comment did I ask you about your race?? Mr. corn dog LOL?? They should have a gotten a real Italian actor and a real Jewish actor. And there nothing wrong being African, be proud.
@DEKMAN99 Stop overusing and misusing question marks, it's an insult to literature.
And what I meant was, you were trying to seperate Italians and Jewish people into different racial groups. Italians are predominately white and Jewish is not a race it's a religion
@MrCorndogEater Oh no its Mr.Corndoglicker, now you a AfricanItalian english teacher. Hey, why do some Jewish and Italians actors and actresses ,change their last names and get nose jobs. Go read a book on the history of Hollywood and stop being a feeble minded ,fucking idiot.
You are so absolutely right, it doesn't do justice to any of them, on the contrary... It's a pity, if they did the movie they should have done it right... This movie is shallow and inaccurate and a big disappointment.
Everyone always labelled Jerry Lewis as an idiot but you have to be an absolute genius to act that stupid, if only that applied outside of show business ;)
I think sean did an amazing job playing Jerry in this movie, His manerisms, and his voice, everything. ANd the guy that Played Dean was awesome too, they both must have done their homework and studied Martin and Lewis to do this as well as they did
It's funny, but before I saw this movie, I thought there was something about Sean that reminded me of Jerry Lewis. Then I saw him in this and I was like, "Wow, he really looks like him!" It was a good movie!
You can get it on dvd but the only place that I've been able to find it is on ebay since it was never officially released but was put on dvd for emmy consideration but they can go for about 70 dollars on ebay.
como se llama la cancion que canta Dean al principio de esta escena?
Creo que en el futuro se deberia hacer una nueva pelicula de estos dos, ya que considero que quedaron muchas cosas inconclusas en esta pelicula. A lo mejor incluso seria bueno ver una pelicula biografica de Jerry Lewis.
Yes, it is Dean singing in the beginning. I wish that Jerry would come out with another book or that there would be much longer, more in depth movie, kind of like Chaplin, about Dean and Jerry.
Neither actor looked like the parts they were playin. especially Jeremy he looked NOTHIN like Dean. thank god they used his original music. Sean did a much better job as Jerry. then again who could possibly recreate these 2 men? thanks for postin.
Thank you so much for uploading!! I've wanted to see this, so really thank you! Is it a good movie? is it close to the reality? Anyone who has an opinion?
No problem. The rest of the parts are coming, I thought that the bulk uploader had uploaded them all.
