Buch, Paperback Rae Beth Gordon Erscheinungsjahr: 2001 Verlag: Stanford University Press Sprache: Englisch Vividly bringing to light the tradition of physical comedy in the French cabaret, cafe-concert, and early French film comedy, this book answers the perplexing question, "Why do the French love Jerry Lewis?" It shows how Lewis touches a nerve in the French cultural memory because, more than any other film comic, he incarnates a distinctively French tradition of performance style."
