When Jews Were Funny
Himself
From the 1930's to the 1970's, pretty well every comedian or comic you might see on TV or the movies was Jewish. Jews came to dominate the world of western‐society comedy on radio, stage and screen alike.Why did Jews dominate comedy in this period? And why did that domination end? Were Jews just funnier back then? And if so, did that extend to your average Jew on the street? In this 90 minute documentary acclaimed director Alan Zweig will examine these questions and many others in this exploration of 20th century humour, cultural decay, and a search for a missing heritage.
Аристократы
Self
Иллюзионист, комик и просто талатливый артист Пенн Жиллетт открывает для зрителей тайны мира комедии. Самые грязные шутки, которые не повторяются дважды, для комиков, по его мнению, это то же самое, что соло в джазе. И эти правила остаются неизменным с самого возникновения жанра и до наших дней, что подтверждается кадрами выступлений 105 лучших комиков, невольно ставших главными героями фильма.
Goodnight, We Love You
Himself
GOODNIGHT, WE LOVE YOU is a film that chronicles the final stand-up comedy performance of a true living legend - the first female stand-up comic in history: Phyllis Diller. In 2002, Phyllis Diller announced that she would be hanging up her wigs and sequins after 47 years on the road. This film captures a never-before-seen, intimate look at a trailblazer for both women and comedy. Miss Diller provides unprecedented access to her preparations for her final performance at the Suncoast Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. This is a revealing and personal study of the art of stand-up comedy as told by an icon and a true comedic genius.
