Jack & Walter: The Films of Lemmon & Matthau

by Ben Costello

Together, Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau put the "fun" in dysfunctional, working jointly in 11 memorable, often classic, cinematic pairings. At odds onscreen, the two become best friends off - a friendship that enhanced every frame of film they appeared in side by side.

Jack & Walter follows the intersection of Lemmon and Matthau's careers, starting in 1966 with their first screen-pairing in The Fortune Cookie and continuing through their last laugh filled romp in The Odd Couple II in 1998. With Lemmon representing America's favorite everyman and Matthau characterizing the beloved grouchy brother-in-law, the dynamic duo made millions of moviegoers smile every time the two appeared in darkened theatres across the nation - if not the world.
