"The King of Comedy" -- Martin Scorsese's 1982 film starring Robert DeNiro and Sandra Bernhard (in an Oscar-worthy performance) as obsessed fans of a talk show host played by Jerry Lewis -- is one of the darkest and most brilliant movies of all time. What it needs desperately is to be available to stream on Netflix and Hulu so more people can appreciate it. (It was, however, issued ON BLU-RAY for its 30th anniversary in 2012.) What it most definitely DOES NOT need is to be made into a Broadway musical. Guess which one is actually happening. Read HERE.
UPDATE: Sandra seems to agree with me.
Sandra, oh!
Don't mess with perfection
