"The Nutty Professor" never fails to amuse and touch me, no matter how may times I watch it. Milquetoast.
An unsophisticated stationmaster from provincial New Mexico fraudulently claims that he is dying in order to get an expense-paid dream tour of New York. The Jerry Lewis 1963 The Nutty Professor is considered a comedy classic — a widely acclaimed spoof on Robert Louis Stevenson’s 1886 novella Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
Whether you refer to him as Professor Julius Kelp or Professor Sherman Klump, The Nutty Professor is coming back to the big screen by way of Scream 5 screenwriter, James Vanderbilt.
