Jerry Lewis stars as near-sighted chemistry teacher Julius Kelp in
this comedy classic. In order to help him get close to his
favourite student Stella Purdy (Stella Stevens) and to overcome the
humiliation that's been heaped on him all his life, Julius invents
a special formula intended to transform him from a shy, timid
academic into a handsome casanova. The experiment works well,
turning Julius into the incorrigible Buddy Love and giving him the
courage to approach his beloved Stella, but it is a transformation
which tends to wear off at the most unexpected moments....
A Book Is Born It was 1962. I was at Paramount filming "The Nutty
Professor," a labor of love that transcended everything else I had
ever done. One day I felt instinctively that there were minor
rumblings among my crew. Backbiting and envy are two of the most
destructive forces I know of. So I went home that night, sat down
and wrote a tome -- a small one, but a tome, on the benefits of
being a person. I wrote the words in a matter of two hours and had
my sketch artist interpret what I wrote in sketches. Within one
week I had the little book printed and bound and made up only 200
copies (my crew was a total of 185). I distributed the book to
every member of that crew and it made a difference... and I created
a small, worthwhile message to all who read it. Jerry Lewis
The Fading Voices of Alcatraz is a ten chapter work that
focuses on the United States Federal Penitentiary era (1934-1963)
of Alcatraz Island, San Francisco Bay, California. The complete
history of Alcatraz Island includes such topics as early Native
American, Spanish discovery, military fort, military prison,
federal penitentiary, Indian occupation, and National Park. Each
era is briefly explored, enhancing the rich story of the legendary
island that is simply known as, 'The Rock.' Shared accounts by the
actual Correctional Officers and Prisoners is the trove of treasure
to be discovered within the pages of this book. The tales are as
inspiring and fascinating as the true historians who shared them.
Historically compelling, The Fading Voices of Alcatraz is both
educational and entertaining.
