They already knew each other in 1945. How long before that did they know each other? It seems I've read that he watched Dean sing at The Riobamba Club in 1943. And according to what I've read, Dean was drafted into the U.S. Army sometime in 1944 for a little over a year.

I don't know why it was in a dumpster, maybe Chris will tell us when I read a little further. 1956 was not a good year for Dean and Jerry. Maybe Jerry tossed it, but it doesn't make sense because Jerry kept everything. Or his heart was just too broken to look at it.

I'm about halfway through Chris Lewis's book about his Dad Jerry and I'd like to say something. Jerry was one of the kindest, most generous, funniest, most charming, loving, unselfish, people who ever lived. He really loved his fellow man. He's more beautiful than ever before to me.

Dean still wore Jerry's ring and of course, the twin watch. These two, I swear.
ā€œ(Jerry Lewis) Another one. He did the same thing with me. I donā€™t know what it is about me, but he also covered me in jewelry, like if you give jewelry, you will be loved. When I did The Young Lions with Dean Martin, I asked him, ā€˜Where did you get that ring?ā€™ ā€˜Jerry.ā€™ He wanted to give, give, maybe he wanted to be loved. But it was difficult to work with him, because heā€™d be behind the camera making funny faces. He didnā€™t want to let go of this comic personality.ā€
ā€” Liliane Montevecchi (on working with Jerry Lewis during The Sad Sack)

Iā€™ve always just loved this photo of the two of them. Whatever they were doing with their hands doesnā€™t even matter. Look at that eye contact and the expression on their faces. They really were obsessed with each other.

Jeanne doesnā€™t seem to be in it. Lol šŸ˜‚ She once called Dean her soulmate, and I had to stop reading and think about what she said. Lady, youā€™re not even close.

Using your partner as a comfortable chair because the couch you're already sitting on isn't comfortable enough, right Jer?

Dean Martin feeling up Jerry Lewis in Sailor Beware, 1951
I donā€™t think Dean had to massage his chest and stomach so much but he did and Iā€™m glad. And Jerryā€™s breast šŸ˜‚

Tell me again how much Dean hated Jerry. Dean Martin was absolutely obsessed with Jerry, he loved him so much and no matter what happened between them, the love never diminished, not even when they thought they never wanted to see each other again

Three random facts:
I have a HEALTHY obsession with Martin and Lewis. If they make me happy then that's healthy
I think Jerry Lewis and Fred Astaire are the most talented individuals that ever lived
I'm a firm believer in the old saying: Actions speak louder than words. I use it frequently in my ramblings about Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis.
