 Jerry Lewis (I) (qv) found Martin Scorsese (qv)s working method  initially frustrating, as he was made to wait around for the first 3  days of shooting. Lewis told Scorsese that he was a professional and  was going to get paid for all the time he was made to wait, and that  if Scorsese wasnt going to use him, then he could tell him that he  wasnt needed.
