The Fragility of the Human Mind, Part 1: Brendan Byers III

In WHICH WAY TO THE FRONT? (1970), Jerry Lewis plays Brendan Byers III, who -- despite being the wealthiest man in the world -- is so terrified of rejection that just hearing the word is enough to temporarily transform him into a bug-eyed babbling nut.

I grew up on Jerry Lewis & still love a lot of the early films--but IMHO Which Way... is his worst, a embarrassing, painfully unfunny turd--my young jaw fell open in disbelief when I first saw it.

now, when will The Big Mouth finally hit DVD?! probably his last mostly silly-funny movie...
