'King of Comedy'

Still loving all the of the Martin Scorsese (I can finally spell his name correctly) films. This is also probably Robert DeNiro's best performance I've seen. Just edging out "Taxi Driver" and "Godfather II."

I also love the talk nowadays of how people are disillusioned about celebrity and getting famous. That you just "get discovered" and make it without putting your time in.

Well, it's obvious that it existed 20 years ago and probably was going on 100 years ago. It's the "American Idol" experience before "Idol" even existed.

And if you need any other proof that Jerry Lewis is greatness, then watch this movie.
