EspañolTHE CADDY
:''For the Seinfeld episode, see "The Caddy (Seinfeld episode)"''
'''The Caddy''', starring the comedy team of Martin and Lewis, was filmed from November 24, 1952 through February 23, 1953. It was released by Paramount Pictures on August 10, 1953.
The story centers around Harvey Miller (Jerry Lewis), whose father was a famous golf pro. He wanted Harvey to follow in his footsteps, but poor Harvey is afraid of crowds. Instead, at the advice of his fiancée Lisa (Barbara Bates), Harvey becomes a golf instructor. Lisa's brother Joe (Dean Martin) becomes Harvey's first client and becomes good enough to start playing in touraments, with Harvey tagging along as his caddy. Donna Reed plays the wealthy socialite who Dean wins over.
Joe's success goes to his head and begins to treat Harvey poorly. They begin to quarrel and cause a disruption at a tournament and Joe is disqualified. However, a talent agent witnesses the spectacle and advices that they go into show business.
Harvey conquers his fear and they become successful entertainers. At the end, Harvey and Joe meet up with another comedy team who look just like them, Martin and Lewis!
The score for the film includes the hit "That's Amore", sung by Dean Martin. It was nominated for an Academy Award for best song, but it did not win.
★ As with most films of the time, it garnered a re-release in 1964 on a double bill with another Martin and Lewis picture, ''You're Never Too Young''.
★ This was the team's first film since 1950's ''At War with the Army'' to be produced by their own production company, York Pictures Corporation.
★ The team made a promotional radio message for the movie. Several outtakes, available on ''The Golden Age of Comedy: Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis'' CD, feature Dean and Jerry trying to get through five lines of dialogue. When either one of them messed up a line, they exhange several lines of profanity.
