Known for his funny performances and slapstick humor, Jerry Lewis is a great American actor. Together with Dean Martin, the two created the well-known comedic combo Martin and Lewis, whose antics had audiences in stitches. In addition to his talent for comedy, Lewis was well regarded for his humanitarian endeavors, especially his campaigns to increase awareness of muscular dystrophy. There is no denying his influence on activism and the entertainment sector.
One of Lewis’ most memorable on-screen moments can be seen in the video below. The scene, which features Lewis’s amazing Jitterbug dancing performance, is taken from the 1954 movie Living It Up. Lewis is able to execute a wonderfully ridiculous yet technically flawless performance, making the scenario both hilarious and amazing. He excels when paired with his partner, Dean Martin. Doesn’t this scene transport you back to the heyday of classic filmmaking?
