Title: One of DeNiro's best!
Review: I had seen almost all of the DeNiro/Scorcese films before renting this, and to be honest, I hadn't heard much about this film other than Jerry Lewis' performance. My reaction can be summed up with one word: Wow. DeNiro is stunning. After all the tough guy roles he's had, all the various oddball types, his portrayal of Rupert Pupkin is totally unique and brilliantly done. I was surprised to find Sandra Bernhard here, and by the end was mesmerized by her performance. Then there was Jerry Lewis, filling a role very similar to Johnny Carson's tonight show persona. This film is so good, it made me like JErry Lewis enough that I might watch the Labor Day telethon. Before this, I was either apathetic or turned off by his work. Here, he was nothing short of amazing. Rent this movie today!
