A scene from Martin and Lewis 2002
Dean Martin

How come I sing less songs than usual?

Hal Wallis

Jerry wanted to sing in this one.

Dean Martin

What?

Hal Wallis

He wanted a song. We gave him a song. No big deal.

Dean Martin

No, you listen to me. [angrily] Maybe you didn't notice, but I just had a hit record. Now I made offers to do movies without Jerry. MGM, they want me to do Ten Thousand Bedrooms, and you - you wanna - you wanna waste me? Doing crap like this?!

Hal Wallis

You listen to me. You can do Ten Thousand Bathrooms for MGM for all I care! All I know is you're doing 3 Ring Circus for me. What the hell are you so worried about anyway, huh? People come to see Jerry roll around the floor and you, don't wink and sing. Since when do you care about the script?
