My parent's and Grandparents were invited to watch the filming because a lot of the crew were staying at the hotel,that my parent's had their engagement party in,at the same time.They asked if they could join the party.My parent's and grandparents met,Jerry,Sammi,Peter Lawford and had a lovely picture of Sammi on the motorbike ,with my mum and Nan either side x
It is hard to believe that Jerry Lewis was actually already 43 years old here but he was that age. He always appeared much younger than his age up until the early 1980's. He aged well despite many injuries doing his comedy stunts or move, working many long hard hours without any rest and health issues in extreme body pain for years.
Sammy Davis Jr. Was my favorite human being of all time!!! I have a gold Sands medallion of Sammy from the 60's because my dad worked there. Geez I would have hung out with him forever what a classy guy. Now I'm tearing up 😪
Pac Z : Maybe he was about the wardrobe. He said in his book: ‘Why Me’, he was with Jimi two days before he o’deed. He also said he was with Sharon and Roman in London a few days before the ‘slaughter’ as he called it.
Intriguing to see behind the scenes here. I wondered about this film and how Jerry got on directing it. Well, he looks like he's loving it all. The king of the castle. You get some good stuff from somewhere givethechanceakid. Thank you for sharing it.
1969...American televison... no "dam"...no "hell"...but also no political correctness..2019...American televison..plenty of cursing..sex scenes..and political correctness reigns supreme...which television would you rather watch...
Hello* 2 Awesome Artist talented perfomances all over the whole wide World* Legends Artistry for 60 years* Thanks for the Music\%/ Blessings always wherever they are*😍😘😌😪😃😎😓😳😀
I'm impressed they actually kept all this film footage, especially from back then when nothing was kept. WOW... RICHARD PRYOR on set as an Indian.... Well I hope it was PRYOR!😲😕
Lewis played a goof really well. He seem so kool & normal when not playing that part. Go to show he was a great actor. I do know Dean Martin was real kool with Sammy so much so. That when in that time period when they tried to put Sammy in the colored only section. He wouldn’t allow it. Lewis & Martin have my love & respect to the fullest. Plus always enjoyed watch them. Hope they’re all resting in paradise. Shalom
Its a pity that the interviewer didn't delve deeper into the thoughts of lewis about british comedy.....It wouldve been interesting to hear jerry's views about dads army, steptoe & son and the carry on movies that were doing so well in that period of time.
What was the name of this film? Im. not finding it easy to find a film listing for that date which includes Davis' listing as an actor so I am struggling to find it. Maybe add to the description? Thanks for posting this.
The title of the film was listed in the description. It's from the 1970 film One More Time. It was filmed in '69, and Jerry Lewis was the director of the film. Hope that helps. :)
@5.11 Jerry says that he’d never ridden a motorbike, but didn’t he once end up in hospital after having an accident on one in the 1950s when he was still working with Dean?
How come no one had enough sence to call African-Americans; African Americans in 1969? It never really stuck untill the year 2015. No one had a clue. Not even colored or black leaders; it's like we (they) didnt know what to call ourselves (themselves) And at age 9 I was pretty stupid myself; AND PRONE TO MEDIA BRAINWASH..
@@givethechanceakid Thanks for the history lesson, but your explanation is superfluous. The term 'Negro' and some more 'derogatory' terms were also used back in the day, as I'm sure you're aware. The NAACP, which was founded in 1909, still uses 'colored' in their title, but calling Black folk 'colored' is something they probably wouldn't recommend. I just found Jerry's reference to Sammy amusing. I know he didn't mean it in any 'Negative' way...
Dean most certainly liked to drink. His wife put out that it was apple juice, but he said himself that he hated apple juice. That was used as a prop at times though. According to those he worked with, he drank watered down whisky on stage.
The film he’s directing is “One More Time” with Sammy Davis, jr. and Peter Lawford. It was a major flop but it’s nice to see behind the scenes footage of Jerry directing. Didn’t like that “cute little colored guy” crack he made. If he said that around brothas he would’ve gotten his ass kicked!
Sammy Davis Jr was Jerry's best friend. As for what he said, that was acceptable language back then. What do you think the NAACP stands for? The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Sammy was quoted as using the "colored" term himself. "My mother was born in San Juan. So I'm Puerto Rican, Jewish, colored and married to a white woman. When I move into a neighborhood, people start running four ways at the same time."
givethechanceakid Of course. Everyone knows Sammy and Jerry were friends (cuz Jerry says so ha) technically it wasn’t cool to call any black man colored after ‘68. I KNOW Jerry meant no harm and yes Sammy called himself that durin the Rat Pack days. However, James Brown recorded a song called Say it Loud I’m Black and I’m Proud. Calling a black man colored after that song and at the height of the black revolution movement was considered passé. And yes i know what the NAACP stands for. That name needs to be changed IMO.
Are you saying that Jerry and Sammy weren't friends with that little remark? Jerry and Sammy were many photos together going back to 1951. Sammy was Jerry's best friend, and Sammy loved Jerry and Jerry loved him. They did many shows together throughout the 50's-80's. Jerry was also instrumental in fighting racism in Vegas and other places where African American performers were being treated poorly and their accommodations were none. The Four Step Brothers performed with him often, and he and Dean Martin made sure that they did not perform anywhere that would treat them without respect.
@@ghanasoul Funny how words change over time for skin colour. Now I've heard 'black ' is wrong and 'Person of colour' being used, which sounds pretentious. White is white, but we are all really different shades, and all are beautiful. Don't ever think Jerry was racist. He understood the struggles at the time, he was picked on for being Jewish. He cried his eyes out publicly while paying tribute to Sammy after he died. It was heartbreaking. 'Jerry Lewis -Sammy Davis jr. Tribute.'

cool old footage! thanks for the share.
Fun! I enjoy anything I can see or read about Jerry Lewis. Thanks.
RIP 💗
these guys we're real stars they had talent
and treated their fans with respect unlike the crap of today
Nice! An unusual ambience, with the castle setting and the public being permitted to hang around the shoot. Thank you for sharing this.
Thanks so much for the upload! Fascinating stuff!
OMG great footage!
Jerry Lewis’s approach to interviews had never changed from this one 1969 straight through to 2017 always interesting to hear them.
Absolutely wonderful Jer!! I miss you sooo much... doing my best not to cry❤💗❤
Awesome behind the scenes footage!
Ahhhh, 1969, was a very good year. Thx for posting.
Tell that to Roman Polanski! I think he would disagree!
vikings844 : I was going to say except for Charlie Manson’s ‘family’
Beautiful film,thankyou.
Jerry was always in his own element. A total genius when acting, directing and when being interviewed!!
jerry with beard and very relaxed- never heard of that film- i know they were friends...great piece of history
Jerry looks great with a beard.
No security, no bodyguards, just people admiring him
(Fascinating! It's great to see Sammy D in '69...looks like he'd been observing Jimi Hendrix' wardrobe!)
Pac Z : Maybe he was about the wardrobe. He said in his book: ‘Why Me’, he was with Jimi two days before he o’deed. He also said he was with Sharon and Roman in London a few days before the ‘slaughter’ as he called it.
Jerry certainly had AN EGO to match his talent. what an amazing life. and kept going til past 90!

Thought he looked great in a beard.
Both Sammy and Jerry were very talented!
GENIUS!
Two geniuses at work
The world became a sadder place when it lost these two titans
Wow a new upload of rare footage. I'm not familiar with this movie.
Jerry is gorgeous with his beard!! 👨❤️💋👨
Stephanie, I know! Can't even look at him...I mean he was SEXY!!!
Jerry in a beard hits different
Wow, I've never seen him with a beard. It suited him very well.
Jerry was cool daddy-o
He was gorgeous!
Fascinating !
6:27 Love it. Back when we all had a sense of humor.
Jerry with a beard 😍
so sexy!
I wish someone had talked Jerry into playing a villain. Imagine Jerry as the Joker.
Great idea. He would have made a good Joker or some other Batman villain.
@@RG-hf4et He made a very brief cameo in Batman, when they climb up a building and he opens one of the windows.
Gerry's very handsome & Sammy was charming...
I enjoyed MR Lewis in this interview.He can be comic or strickly business.
A genius working
Yes !!
I'm impressed they actually kept all this film footage, especially from back then when nothing was kept.
WOW... RICHARD PRYOR on set as an Indian.... Well I hope it was PRYOR!😲😕
Sammy Davis was the polar opposite of Jerry.
Thank God 😊
Top stuff
Sammy Davis played at least 3 different musical instruments proficiently, Drums, piano, vibraphone.
Lewis played a goof really well. He seem so kool & normal when not playing that part. Go to show he was a great actor. I do know Dean Martin was real kool with Sammy so much so. That when in that time period when they tried to put Sammy in the colored only section. He wouldn’t allow it. Lewis & Martin have my love & respect to the fullest. Plus always enjoyed watch them. Hope they’re all resting in paradise. Shalom
How sad for our society when we consider it an "advancement" to be able to use profanity on live television!
Pure Genius
very interesting.
Ooooo I lived just a few miles from there!
Not long ago but such a different time. Everyone nicely presented and not a single fat person in sight
Dean Noble well smoking is an appetite suppressant, and they smoked like it was a religion.
Its a pity that the interviewer didn't delve deeper into the thoughts of lewis about british comedy.....It wouldve been interesting to hear jerry's views about dads army, steptoe & son and the carry on movies that were doing so well in that period of time.
Jerry Lewis had swagger for a dude that always played a dork. Always feel wrong for thinking he was kind of sexy
Why would you feel wrong about it? He was always hot, sexy, etc. One of the handsomest comedians ever!
you shouldn't feel wrong! Jerry was sexy as hell! He was always gorgeous!
Oh yeah his swagger was more than swag...
He was very sexy!!! Extremely handsome and quite debonair!!! Love him!! The best !!!
Woww! que maravilla de videos
Sou fã do saudoso JERRY LEWIS
Loved it, but the title is misleading. Should be more like "Jerry Lewis and Sammy Davis, Jr. Make A Movie".
Well they are being interviewed during this? I explained the whole situation in the info for the video in the description box. :)
@@givethechanceakid - the interview seemed hit and run. Still enjoyed the clip, though.
He looks nice in a beard

Are you thinking of the scooter accident in '53?
I think Jerry said Dean bought him that scooter. He came off it and tore up his leg.
Jerry Lewis doing his Hait Ashberry beat nick look. Where are the bongos?
Funny in movies , but in my opinion from all interviews I have seen over the years , guy was "Full of Himself"...
One thing about Jerry Lewis is that you better be on your top game and not be thin skinned. He would always challenge the reporter.
What movie?

"Cute little colored guy"
Yes they were best friends, and the term "colored" back then was used. NAACP uses the term in their title.

He looked sober.
Why wouldn't he? He wasn't a big drinker. You may be getting mixed up with his comedy partner Dean Martin.
@@bunnyhop3211 Dean wasn't a drinker it was a prop
Dean most certainly liked to drink. His wife put out that it was apple juice, but he said himself that he hated apple juice. That was used as a prop at times though. According to those he worked with, he drank watered down whisky on stage.
What movie is this?
it is:
'One more time'
with Peter Lawford and Sammy Davis Jr
is it all they did all the time smoke cigarrets
?
He kinda looked high on something or life too
Doesn't seem like much fun. Hard work and stress on the set.

Very interesting
