Jerry doing Jerry
14 May 2024
Hollywood bombshell diva Lola Livingston (Marie McDonald) is going to Japan on a USO tour. Struggling second rate magician Gilbert Wooley (Jerry Lewis) is one of the lesser acts joining her. They do not get along right from the start. Sgt. Pearson (Suzanne Pleshette) is a WAC overseeing the tour.

This is mostly slapstick and mugging from Jerry Lewis who has a rabbit and a kid. So, he's breaking the cardinal rule. He is still the most chaotic of them all. This also has a young Suzanne Pleshette in her first movie role. Mostly, she gets to look pretty and side-eye at Jerry Lewis' craziness. It's not much more than a good excuse for Jerry's brand of tomfoolery. It's light silly fun with a lot of sentimentality.
