The biggest joke in "The Sunshine Boys" is that the two old vaudevillians are funnier when they're not telling jokes. The set-up of the 1975 comedy, based on the Neil Simon play, is about the duo of Lewis & Clark, hysterically funny on stage, and horribly estranged off it. They're brought back together by an offer to do their act one more time for a big television special, if they can only stand to be in the same room.
