Looking at Jerry Lewis THE NUTTY PROFESSOR Storyboards 🔗 🎨 🖼️ 🎥 🍿

Through March 3 at The Museum of Modern Art

A recent gift to the Museum, John Lauris Jensen’s storyboards for THE NUTTY PROFESSOR are graphic interpretations of the script, suggesting elements of performance, staging, lighting effects, camera placement, and cutting continuity. The 11 storyboard sequences on display here anticipate the look and experience of the motion picture, skillfully expressing Lewis’s intentions as both director and performer.
