Superb interview with 90 year old Jerry Lewis.

So rude and curmudgeonly it's hilarious.

DH and I saw it yesterday evening; it's a riot!

We both laughed at it and we aren't even Jerry Lewis fans.

Liked him best in King of Comedy, though he wasn't the star. Just love all of that film.

I've never been a fan of Lewis, and never been able to understand why people think he's funny (that's not a criticism - humour is subjective, after all), so I'm not particularly inclined to defend him.

I have seen a few comments about this interview, allegedly from people in the know, who say that he started out quite cheerful and chipper, but they made such a dreadful hash of setting up the lighting and camera, and the interviewer was so inept, that Lewis quickly got fed up and bored with the whole affair. And when you're 90, you're allowed to behave like you were 5. It is written.
