June 4, 1963 –
The Nutty Professor, arguably Jerry Lewis‘ best directorial effort, was released on this date.
The character of Professor Frink from the animated television series The Simpsons loosely borrows many of his mannerisms and technique from Lewis’ delivery of the Julius Kelp character, as well as the transition to a Buddy Love version of Frink in several episodes. In one episode, the character of Frink’s father was voiced by Lewis.
