[QUOTE="darkshadows38, post: 248435, member: 19"] John Carradine i dunno how many know this, During the filming of (1964)'s The Patsy Carradine got the script for well "The Munsters" in fact and was offered the lead and he wanted to do it and he was going to do it but he went to Lewis and Lewis told him NO! well the thing with Lewis was instead of filming he was showing off for the fans & paying more attention to the fans than the actual filming of the film. he was pissed at Lewis and he from than on said that the only good thing about that movie was the binder the script came in which he used for the rest of his life i believe & he was forced to tell his agent who was begging him to take it and they were forced to go with Fred Gwynne now i dunno what kind of performance he would have given but remember that he turned down the role than they went to Carradine and when Carradine turned it down or was forced to than Gwynne went back and said yes after thinking about it. so he was forced to take the role of i believe his boss i believe. that same film also had Peter Lorre hate that picture with a Vengeance he hated being on that film that it killed him and i wish i was joking his hatred and prolly stress as well ended up killing him cause of his hatred for Jerry Lewis and i can believe it. Lewis was a big shot back than and so his Ego was Enormous i'm sure and it's a shame that he had to be like that i think. i've always had the feeling that Dean Martin was a kind of laid back kind of guy outside of his films & sure he had his moments as well but i never got the impression he had an ego at least not the size of Lewis's. Lewis always seems to be really high strung compared to Martin and it's really a wonder how they even worked together for so long. but Lewis could be good when he wanted to on SVU he was really good damn good and that was the last thing i saw him in before he died.
