Classic with great dialogue
Always loved this movie since I was a kid (before VCR's)and would watch on Dad's old 16 mm projector..Funny that someone else wrote they felt this role was "made for Danny Kaye"....In fact the movie was based on a book- "The Maladjusted Jester" that was written by Sylvia Fine- who was- guess who? Danny Kaye's wife!

A Great Movie
The Court Jester is a true classic that will keep you entranced the whole time. Danny Kaye is a top-flight actor and singer. It is sort of a take on Robin Hood , the evil king on the throne and a band of fearless outlaws in the forest loyal to the real king. Except Danny is not the fearless leader but the nurse to the orphaned crown prince, and his only duties are to hold the child and show people the mark on his (the baby's) butt. Sound nasty? it's not.

The Court Jester
Is the brew that is true in the chalice from the palace or the flagon with the dragon? You'll never know unless you take the time to enjoy one of the greatest Danny Kaye movies of all time! Also starring Angela Lansbury, Glynis Johns, Basil Rathbone.....does it get any better?

Danny Kaye at his best.
Once again Danny Kaye weaves his very own special type of comedy in a very engaging film. The color, pagentry and the acting are all great. A wonderful film for all of all ages...

Danny Kaye at his BEST!
I am partial to Danny Kaye, he is one of my all-time favorite actors, but it's not just partiality talking, when I say that this is one of the best comedies ever made! I LOVE IT!!! Thankfully, I was raised watching old movies, and I am making sure that all of my friend's children are made to watch this one, because it starts them on the path to appreciating classic comedy; it's definately Danny Kaye at his best!
