This film has such a simple plot, but it's great, and I think "Buddy Love" is a wonderfully memorable name. I would definitely try an Alaskan Polar Bear Heater, especially for Stella Stevens, who looks stunning in the b/w photo.sarkoffagushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00922698736476674377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5344878851139332715.post-76841258501545217382010-08-30T09:25:10.436-04:002010-08-30T09:25:10.436-04:00Rick, Thank you, This is also my my favorite Jerry...Rick, Thank you, This is also my my favorite Jerry Lewis movie. I think I would try the drink "Alaskan Polar Bear", with my fingers crossed, hoping that I would not freeze up like a statue. I thought Buddy Love was a creepy guy. I never could figure out why Stella was ever attracted to him.<br /><br />Becky, Thank you. If you ever try the drink " Alaskan Polar Bear", please.. let me know how you like it. I will do the same. One of my favorite Stella Stevens performance, is when she played opposite Dean Martin in the Matt Helm film, The Silencers.<br /><br />Javabeanrush, You are correct there are some dream sequences where he also plays other characters. Thank you, for posting the link. I will check it out.<br /><br />Aki, Thank you. Both my husband and I love this movie so much, we added it to our ever growing DVD collection.<br /><br />Toto, Thank you. In my research of Stella Stevens, I was pleasantly surprised to find that she was in so many wonderful films.<br /><br />Theladyeve, Thank you. I agree, with your thoughts on this fun film.Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03476174860119487509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5344878851139332715.post-72027350528159757902010-08-30T01:30:33.277-04:002010-08-30T01:30:33.277-04:00Thanks Dawn for a great spotlight on THE NUTTY PRO...Thanks Dawn for a great spotlight on THE NUTTY PROFESSOR. I love this movie, I think it's the best of Jerry's solo films. He manages to be so sympathetic as the klutzy and sweet professor and so repulsive as Buddy Love.The Lady Evehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11963115499930520653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5344878851139332715.post-47133390501211974552010-08-29T21:08:21.691-04:002010-08-29T21:08:21.691-04:00Dawn, you have done a great job researching and wr...Dawn, you have done a great job researching and writing about "The Nutty Professor." It has been too long since I have seen this movie and you make me want to do so again! I especially liked the photos you posted.

If I drank the Alaskan Polar Bear, I would so sick! My husband loved the photo of Stella Stevens. He has always liked her. A great review and I need to see this movie soon!Akihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03037507780056714337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5344878851139332715.post-38326926796076198592010-08-29T12:19:30.851-04:002010-08-29T12:19:30.851-04:00*behind*behindJavaBeanRushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05653117187583244224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5344878851139332715.post-72772803667144536712010-08-29T12:18:37.349-04:002010-08-29T12:18:37.349-04:00"I thought Jerry Lewis must be a very talente..."I thought Jerry Lewis must be a very talented actor to be able to manage two very distinct characters with two distinct personalities." - Dawn<br /><br />Indeed.

I'm not a good drinker, so one would probably put me right under the table. I'm a cheap date! You know, I always thought the Buddy Love character was funnier than the Professor character. I'm not a huge fan of slapstick, but Buddy Love made me laugh. Stella Stevens was very cute in this. I always thought her best part was in The Poseidon Adventure. She gave it an element of raunchy, appealing fun, and did a lot to carry that movie. Thanks for an entertaining article with interesting trivia, Dawn.ClassicBeckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03591715859057540467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5344878851139332715.post-14233109022107420982010-08-29T10:37:17.060-04:002010-08-29T10:37:17.060-04:00Dawn, this is a fun review of my favorite Jerry Le...Dawn, this is a fun review of my favorite Jerry Lewis movie. Wow, given those ingredients, I don't think I ever want to try an Alaskan Polar Bear! What's interesting about NUTTY PROFESSOR is that Buddy isn't appealing at all--except perhaps in a "cool" way. So, the fact that Stella keeps a bottle of the potion at the end seems to indicate that it's not completely what's on the inside that counts. That theme gives this comedy a little punch.Rick29https://www.blogger.com/profile/08358116647815569722noreply@blogger.com
