update: just watched the caddy.
I oscillated between wanting to kill or adopt Jerry Lewis. I always thought he was an asshole and he probably was but FUCK HE WAS FUNNY, nobody will ever beat his physical comedy. Also I want to eat Dean Martin. He's the cutest man I've ever seen in my life but I knew that already.
Also my god they were more than vaguely homoerotic you're right. This shit gay as fuck. 'Those old men have a gay thing going on' and 'those old men are gay for each other' are two very separate statements that are coincidentally both true here. I'm gonna work through the others on your list now🫡
Going between wanting to adopt & kill jerry lewis is absolutely the right reaction. It’s kind of his whole schtick. If you get through the M&L movies and find yourself curious about how a guy like that matured, i definitely recommend looking into his solo movies (particularly the ones he directed). They’re better movies in general than the M&L ones and they’re goddamn fascinating.
dean martin is adorable. He’s very hard not to like. The movies he made after the split are less good on average but his tv show(s) are very fun.
If you thought the caddy was homoerotic you’re in for a treat with Pardners
