    CLIP DESCRIPTION:
    Navin (Steve Martin) loses his virginity to Patty (Catlin Adams), discovering his "special purpose" that his family always told him about.
    FILM DESCRIPTION:
    Carl Reiner directs Steve Martin (who co-wrote the script with Carl Gottlieb) in this gag-laden comedy about an idiotic white man, raised by a poor family of black sharecroppers, who doesn't realize he's not black. Navin R. Johnson (Steve Martin) is told the horrible truth when he finds himself instinctively tapping his feet to an easy listening tune on the radio, instead of a low-down blues. His mother (Mabel King) tells him he's white and Navin takes to the road (in a World War II bomber helmet and goggles) to start a new life in St. Louis. A filling station owner, Harry Hartounian (Jackie Mason), give Navin his first break, hiring him to pump gas. One day at the station, Navin has a brainstorm, concocting an invention called "The Opti-grab," a combination handle and nose-brace for eyeglasses. But Navin runs into trouble when a crazed killer (M. Emmet Walsh) picks out his name at random from the telephone book and tries to kill him. Navin escapes to a traveling carnival, where he wrangles a job as the "guess-your-weight" man. At the carnival, he discovers his sexual nature, thanks to stunt rider and S&M enthusiast Patty Bernstein (Catlin Adams). But Navin meets the beautiful Marie (Bernadette Peters) and he quickly falls in love. In the meantime, the "Opti-grab" has taken off and soon Navin is a millionaire.

    Some wonderful deadpan work by Mabel King in this scene. Seeing "The Jerk" in a double feature with "Blazing Saddles" was one of the most savvy drive-in experiences one could ever have.

    Best movie ever. Never gets old, never stops being funny. And yes, this movie couldn't be made today for the mainstream although it's not filthy or having bad language, it's just too funny and not PC

      @@25756881 Just look at all the unfunny, politically correct so called comedy's of the past two decades, movie makers and the entertainment industry in general, have been so terrified of offending any racial, or marginalized groups that they toned comedy's so much that they're not comedy's anymore, and therefore, Not funny !
