The Big Mouth is a 1967 comedy starring Jerry Lewis. It was released on July 12, 1967 by Columbia Pictures.
Plot
Gerald Clamson (Jerry Lewis) is a bank examiner who loves fishing. Unfortunately one day at the ocean he reels in an injured gangster in a scuba diving suit named Syd Valentine (also played by Jerry Lewis). Syd tells Gerald about the diamonds he had stolen from the other gangsters and hands him a map.
Gerald heads to the Hilton Inn in San Diego where Syd claimed the diamonds were hidden. There he meets Suzie Cartwright (Susan Bay), an airline stewardess. While searching for the diamonds, he needs to avoid the hotel staff after inadvertently hurting the manager, and disguised himself as his Nutty Professor character, while trying to stay one step ahead of the other gangsters who are on his tail, all the while courting Suzie. The movie ends in a chase through Sea World San Diego, followed by a return to the Pacific Ocean, where Syd reappears. The gangsters chase Syd into the ocean, and Gerald and Suzie walk away, deeply in love. The diamonds are never located.
Production
The Big Mouth was filmed from December 5, 1966-February 28, 1967 and marked the film debut of Charlie Callas as well as a cameo by Colonel Harland Sanders.
