Storyline

When a star comedian dies, rather than letting anyone know, his comedy writers decide to find and teach an unknown to fill his shoes for a big show the comedian had been schedeled for. But the man they choose - bellboy, Stanley Belt - can't do anything right, and time's running out.—Brian W Martz



Short Review

The Patsy reflects a genuine affection for the artisans and jacks-of-all-trades that make careers like Lewis's possible.
