Well. This Is Amazing.

A few years ago I wrote about a Jerry Lewis film that almost killed him and was never released, The Day the Clown Died:
Doork is given the job of putting new prisoners on the train to Auschwitz, the Nazi concentration camp. Like the Pied Piper, he leads a group of children on to the train; at the film’s conclusion, he leads kids to their death in the gas chamber. He goes to entertain the kids, but feels remorse, so he steps inside the gas chamber to join them. The movie ends with Doork inside the gas chamber, the children laughing with him.
Suddenly, some footage of the film have been posted on YouTube. The internet's amazing, amirite? Not as amazing as popping up with my first-ever varsity football game, but still. When is this movie finally gonna be released?
