blake   10 #12 Posted August 21, 2017 He was very big in Germany  actually it was France, not Germany, where Jerry Lewis was really highly regarded. See here : https://www.vanityfair.com/culture/2013/07/french-love-jerry-lewis-paris   as for me, like most people, I didn't find Lewis's 1950s movies funny at all, even when I was a kid. For me his peak was his really excellent straight performance in Scorcese's King of Comedy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
