Jackie Mason: In Israel

Jackie Mason was ordained as a rabbi (like his father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and brothers) when he was 25, and while he left the synagogue after three years for a career as a standup comic, the idiosyncrasies of Jewish-American life have always been one of his favorite topics. It was only appropriate that Mason should make a pilgrimage to Israel to present his acclaimed stage act; Jackie Mason: In Israel captures the comic delivering his often politically provocative act on the road.
