See Jerry Lewis’s The Nutty Professor on the big screen, presented by his son Chris Lewis, who will introduce the film and join me for a post-screening Q&A. If the home movies (see event on 16 November) offer a glimpse of Lewis’s developing style, The Nutty Professor shows him at its peak. It's his most critically acclaimed film and the fullest expression of an obsession with duality that recurs throughout his work. And… btw… it’s also incredibly funny! UK screenings of this crowd-pleaser are already rare and, since Chris was on set during production, you can expect to hear lots of stories you won't hear anywhere else!
Chris will also be signing copies of his book before the screening, and has very kindly donated a selection of gorgeous The Nutty Professor posters signed by Jerry Lewis himself, each accompanied by a certificate of authenticity, to be sold in aid of the Cinema Museum. Book-and-signing tickets and poster supporter options are available to purchase in advance or on the night, subject to availability. All proceeds from book and poster sales go directly to the Cinema Museum’s fundraiser.
