Dean Martin & Jerry Lewis in THE CADDY This Friday at Webster University

By  | 


THE CADDY screens at Webster University’s Moore Auditorium (470 East Lockwood)  Friday August 3rd. The movie starts at 7:30.


THE CADDY is a Dean Martin & Jerry Lewis comedy from 1953. It’s directed by Norman Taurog and also stars Donna Reed & Barbara Bates. Also featured  are some leading professional golfers of the time.


This is one of the most beloved  Martin & Lewis movie that sticks rigidly to the formula that made them so popular. Jerry causes mayhem but always endears in doing so, while Dean croons and catches the eye of the ladies. Plot is told in flashback as the popular duo, now big musical hall stars, shows how they got together courtesy of golf. Cue some goofing around on golf courses and chaos unbound as Jerry upsets the upper class toffs of society. Cue carnage in a department store and chaos on the golf course.


Dean sings the Oscar nominated “That’s Amore,” as well as “It’s A Whistle In,” “Kinda Mornin,” “One Big Love” & “What Wouldcha Do Without Me?” Reed and Bates are pretty and adorable, and both play off of the boys with ease. All of which builds to a fun double-take ending to seal the deal as THE CADDY reaching its par on the course of Martin & Lewis movies.
