"The Patsy" is a typical sixties comedy directed by Jerry Lewis for his best personal brilliance. And the truth is that it does not disappoint because it is one of the best examples of his humor both gestural and narrative and it is clearly recognizable as your debt details with Stan Laurel (for example, unmistakable faces behind the scenes of the door leaf sliding) to the continuous display of complete sequences gags like to visit the music teacher or their creativity in developing skits.
Although, by impositions script, humorous almost disappears in the second half of the film in favor of the tax section always romantic, "The Patsy" is one of the works of Lewis that no longer be viewed.
