The story

In the setting of his office, Jack Lemmon shares some memories of his childhood and his relationship with his father that led him to develop a certain sense of humour and, ultimately, to become a professional entertainer. Lemmon expresses his personal mantra about film acting (“Simple is good”), and discusses some of his most important parts in Some Like It Hot and Days of Wine and Roses. The film also contains original interviews with Walter Matthau and Billy Wilder, and film clips from The Odd Couple (1968), Kotch (1971) (Lemmon's first directorial effort), The Front Page (1974) and the 1976 TV adaptation of The Entertainer.
