Stephen C @bob25009 May 30 A failure in just 1.5 hours!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! See more 10/28/2019 I used to think why jews aren’t funny anymore but after watching this movie with my Jewish rabbi neighbor. He told me that they have lost faith and humor in society after the war on Purim. So sad See more 10/28/2019 I didn’t even know that Jews where that funny See more 04/01/2017 A tedious documentary that is unsure of what it wants to be. Zweig offers sweeping generalizations that leave his interviewees nonplussed. The only reason I hung in until the end of the documentary was in hopes of hearing more classic jokes. Alas, I did not. Spend 90 minutes watching Blazing Saddles -- it's a richer exploration of Jewish humor. See more 10/29/2015 Not very informative or entertaining. C- See more 05/16/2015 This is way more than a movie about old Jewish Comedians, this is a movie about the Jewish soul. You have to be a Jew to give this film 5 stars because it hits on all 8 Jewish cylinders. Only 4 stars if you're a Goy because frankly you will be only able to connect intellectually with this and not emotionally. The Shelly Berman end when he sings alone is worth watching this film.
