"What happened was that when Lewis started in the role, he apparently did underplay it for the most part, except for one or two moments. As time went on, perhaps in part because audiences wanted to see 'Jerry Lewis,' he started adding more and more of his shtick."
Thanks, you may have noted this before. I guess it's understandable, if lamentable. I did see Lewis right at the beginning of his run, and most of the performance was underplayed. |
