There are legends that endure over time. Jerry Lewis is one of them. For the French public, we can say that it is the American Louis de Funès. He debuted with another American sacred monster, Dean Martin, in 1946. A Jerry Lewis cycle will be one of the big events on OCS in December.
A Jerry Lewis cycle: 5 unforgettable films
The artist had several hats: Comedian, actor, producer, director .. He was present in cinema, television and radio. A most prolific career. 60 films to his credit, 12 as a director. A most active creative. We especially remember his clumsy roles where he excelled. The French public remembers the César d'honneur he presented to Louis de Funès. A moment of anthology that we strongly suggest you see again. In addition to being one of the best comedians of all time, the man was also known for his many commitments to humanitarian causes.
