Steve Martin stars in The Jerk , one of the funniest films of all time! Enjoy the hilarious one-liners such as "I was born a poor black child" and "The ashtray, the paddle game and the remote control, and that's all I need", that make The Jerk one of the most memorable, quotable films ever made. It is just as funny today as it was when Steve Martin wrote and starred in it 26 years ago.
