Was sent the wrong item. I ordered a CD and I received an LP instead. Two different places on the description said that it was a used CD in good condition. When I emailed the seller about it I got a generic reply telling me that they would get to it when they can and that if I send a second message it will just delay the process. That is terrible customer service. If they have time to send me an email message at all then they have time to initiate a refund or to answer the question I asked.

The book arrived in a plastic envelope with not protection and unfortunately it looked like the book was damaged in transit because of it. The items original ETA was April 18th but arrived on April 22nd. I requested a refund after seeing the quality of the book and the seller responded with a full refund and an apology for the quality. I really appreciated the customer service but was sad to see the book not in the quality described.

My sincere apologies, the item was not what I expected, (to NO FAULT of the SELLER at all.) It came in good condition however, I must’ve of misunderstood the description, I thought the names would be transliterated into English, but it's in Hebrew. I thought it would give the Hebrew meaning to the name/ places. Also I noticed that the dust jacket was different than the advertised photo. If I may, I'd like to request a refund please and continue my search... Kind regards.

Danny Kaye at His Best
The Court Jester (Danny Kaye) and Casanova's Big Night (Bob Hope) are the best classic comedy swashbucklers. The Court Jester follows Hawkins, an entertainer who's habit of impersonating the notorious black fox (Robin Hood type) ends up running him on a patriotic quest to infiltrate the false kings castle, overthrow the court and restore the rightful king to the throne. Along the way are the typical songs and facial expressions that made us fall in love with Danny's entertainment style. Glynis Johns, Basil Rathbone and Angela Lansbury add to this delightful tale. Overall a light-hearted, timeless, family-friendly, adventure that features one of the funniest fight scenes in cinematic history. Typically sells for $10 on DVD.The Court Jester (Danny Kaye) and Casanova's Big Night (Bob Hope) are the best classic comedy swashbucklers.

Danny Kaye Lovers Rejoice
Yes, it's back in print, in both cheap not really digitally remastered format, and wonderful clear pristine remastered format. (The trick is to figure out which one you are looking at to buy). But its all there: the wonderful singing, dancing, humor, bright Hollywood costumes (medieval England in this case), spoofy special effects that one looks for in a Danny Kaye film....not to mention, romance, excitement, double dealing....and the famous "the vessel with the pestle has the pellet with the poison routine.". Then there's Angela Lansbury and Glynnis Johns during their starlet phase, and of course, Basil Rathbone as one of the villains. (Kaye and Rathbone provide one of the more humorous rapier battles on screen.) Then there are all the wondrous "little people" that seem to have ...

And oldtimers and movie buffs will recognize many MGM musical supporting actors and actresses who do their best to maintain a straight face thruout Kaye's many antics...how I so wish that they were making "outtakes" in those days. So if you like Kaye, Rathbone, Angela Lansbury, Glynnis Johns, munchkins, or just plain clean simple nonsense, along with singing, dancing, secret identities, medieval/renaissance costume films, or humorous fencing...this is the movie for you.

A solid musical comedy.
Sit down and get ready for a true-blue comedy, back in the days when "comedy" didn't mean two hours of cursing, fart jokes, and lowbrow hooting and grunting. The plot is completely absurd, down to the core of it-an ex-carnival performer joins up with a band of rebels, impersonates the new jester so he can get into the palace and find a way in for the rest of the rebels, and promptly gets snared in about four or five completely separate plots, most of which he is completely unaware of thanks to a little black magic hypnosis. At no point does the film take itself seriously, instead being perfectly content to settle the ending with a horde of midgets and a swordfight. The "villain" of the movie surrenders upon being shown a purple flower birthmark on a baby's behind, and it could not better ...

In short, the movie is patently absurd, but it's a solid comedy that's very much worth the price and the time.

Great movie for all ages
Old time movie star Danny Kaye is excellent at providing great dance numbers, songs and timeless humor. This movie keeps up a good pace without a dull moment. It is a great visit to G-rated movies of the golden era of the movie business. A must see for families with children and even single people who want a good laugh.

A classic comedy
The Court Jester is a farce based very loosely on Robinhood and other historical literature. Danny Kaye's performance is a tour de force as he helps restore the rightful king to the throne. Among the crazy occurences is his being put under a spell (by Mildred Natwick) as the greatest swordsman alive, but when not under the spell he is completely inept. Since the spell is started/stopped by the snapping of fingers it leads to a hilarious sword fight with Basil Rathbone (the villain). This film is loaded with laughter, a great break from more "realistic" films.The Court Jester is a farce based very loosely on Robinhood and other historical literature.
