The King of Comedy
A failure upon release — but reappraised over time — THE KING OF COMEDY finds Robert DeNiro as a struggling comedian with delusional aspirations. His obsession with a successful late-night talk show host (played by Jerry Lewis) leads him to kidnap his idol and leverage him for a shot at fame. This satirical dark comedy from Martin Scorsese is a potent critique of our celebrity-obsessed society.
