Storyline for 'Martin and Lewis':
Even at the start of his singing career, Dean Martin is an impressive gentleman, big, tall, hansom, exquisitely dressed, fitting his nightingale voice and naturally classy appeal, even though his womanizing costs him enough in alimony to declare bankruptcy. Jerry Lewis on the other hand is an unsightly schmuck, whose buffoon version of stand-up comedy is an agent's nightmare. When he accepts playing MC in a show with Dean, he tries interacting with him, and they hit gold judging by the audience's reactions. Initially Dean wants to walk off and stay a solo act, but success as a duo is irresistible, and they rocket together, even in Hollywood. However in time they fall out of friendship as their characters and lifestyle clash, and Dean still dreams of solo success. | Comedy duo Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis come together for the first time in this slapstick-heavy feature. Vic Puccinelli (Martin) and Alvin Korwin (Lewis) are buddies who join the army and subsequently find themselves knee-deep in mischief at boot camp. Puccinelli is promoted to first sergeant, while Korwin's career stalls due to his endless clumsiness. Meanwhile, Puccinelli begins to romance Helen (Polly Bergen), a beautiful young local. | This 4 disc set includes 8 movies - My Friend Irma, My Friend Irma Goes West, That's My Boy, Sailor Beware, Jumping Jacks, The Stooge, Scared Stiff, and The Caddy.
