Mike's origins

The other day I was introducing the original movie Bedazzled to a group of co-workers who were too young to remember that Dudley Moore came to notoriety as one half of the comedy team of Peter Cook and Dudley Moore (I will try to find a copy of their Tarzan bit to post here).

Now that the American Film Institute plans a tribute to director Mike Nichols (The Graduate, Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf, Silkwood, Primary Colors et al) in June, I'm betting there are a number of folks that didn't know Nichols first gained fame as part of the comedy team of Miike Nichols and Elaine May. If you didn't, the above clip will give you some idea of what you missed.
