The Caddy
US (1953): Comedy
This Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis comedy features the boys as golfers Joe and Harvey, who team up to compete in a tournament. Harvey can't stand the tension involved in competition and becomes Joe's caddy and coach. But after a few victories, Joe's ego grows out of control, and he determines to dissolve their successful partnership. The two begin arguing and, eventually, cause hilarious chaos at a big tournament, which swiftly ends their careers as golfers and leads them to the world of entertainment instead.
