The Nutty Professor

CENTENNIAL SCREENING! 

Jerry Lewis delivers the finest and most memorable performance of his career in this hilarious, colorful reimagining of the Jekyll and Hyde story. Lewis stars as Julius Kelp, a socially awkward, disaster-prone chemistry professor who develops a magical serum that transforms him into the suave, lounge-singing ladies’ man Buddy Love. Stella Stevens captivates as the student caught between the two personas, while every frame glimmers with 1960s style and inventive physical comedy. Lewis, who also directed and co-wrote the film, showcases effortless charm and a magnetic screen presence that remains legendary. A sparkling testament to Lewis’s comedic genius, The Nutty Professor is a quintessential mid-century classic that continues to dazzle and delight audiences with its timeless charisma.
