Featured review
Jane & Irma
A musical comedy with Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis that, unlike many others, is not focused exclusively on the comedy duo, leaving room for other characters to shine.
With Martin more as a singer than a romantic actor and Lewis, although exuberant as ever, reduced to an almost secondary role, I would say that the ones who stand out the most in this film are the duo Diana Lynn and Marie Wilson, the first with an unquestionable charm and charisma and the second with a very amusing role, which she plays perfectly, a kind of female version of Jerry Lewis, much more restrained and elegant, but no less fun for that. A pleasant surprise.
