If I recall, that was a huge hit when it came out. I wouldn’t call it an uncommon film.
Yeah, but half the people here weren't even born when it came out.
So for that matter, one could respond with Cleopatra, or Ben Hur?
Huh. I’ve never really thought of Ben Hur as a comedy.
What type of movie it is is irrelevant. The point remains that old and outdated, doesn’t mean uncommon.
Oooo...yeahhhh, ummm...I'm gonna have to go ahead and sort of disagree with you there. Yeah, uh, this is a thread about comedies, and I'm just not sure that this is the caliber movie that we would want for an uncommon comedy.
Replace Ben Hur with ANY Jerry Lewis film then. The point remains.
