Desde los primeros días, Jerry Lewis, siguiendo la línea de Chaplin, Keaton y Laurel, hizo reír al público con sus gags visuales, de mímica y de comedia física. Sin embargo, Lewis era mucho más que un payaso. También fue un cineasta innovador cuya curiosidad insaciable lo llevó a escribir, producir y dirigir muchas de las películas en las que apareció, lo que resultó en clásicos tan adorados como “The Bellboy”, “The Ladies Man”, “The Errand Boy” y “The Nutty Professor”.
Este documental narra la extraordinaria vida y el genial trabajo de Jerry Lewis, uno de los intérpretes y cineastas cómicos más icónicos e incomparables de nuestro tiempo.
Writer
The story of Tasmanian-born actor Errol Flynn whose short & flamboyant life, full of scandals, adventures, loves and excess was largely played out in front of the camera - either making movies or filling the newsreels and gossip magazines. Tragically he was dead from the effects of drugs and alcohol by the time he was only 50 & the myths live on. But there is another side of Flynn that is less well known - his ambitions to be a serious writer and newspaper correspondent, his documentary films and his interest in the Spanish Civil War and Castro's Cuba
