Annotation:
Jerry Lewis's intensely personal, revealing Valentine to Dean Martin is chronicled in this deeply sad, moving, but, above all, humorous story of the joys and complications in the famous 10-year-long Martin and Lewis partnership. Written with journalist James Kaplan, Lewis opens his spellbinding trip down memory lane with the pair's first encounter in 1945, on Broadway in the heart of New York City, and moves on to remember their 16 extraordinarily successful films and many hilarious night club and TV acts, until a fateful day in July 1956 when everything fell apart. Though reconciliation did not come for 20 long years, Lewis, with love and respect, candidly explores what happened.
