The Jerk (1979)

"The Jerk" is the 1979 comedy classic starring Steve Martin as a hapless naif stumbling into fame and fortune. Bernadette Peters plays his love interest, bringing a warmer, sultrier edge to the film's goofball charm. The site carries 2 scenes pulled from the movie. They catch her in a more revealing light than the slapstick reputation suggests. There's real nudity in the mix, a surprising glimpse for a film mostly remembered for its jokes. It's a small but worthwhile slice of skin tucked inside a comedy classic.
