Jerry Lewis

10 great movies (and cuts of great movies) that are gone forever.

I remember watching the M.D.A. Telethon with my parents when I was a kid. I will always remember Jerry Lewis for all he's done for other people.

Today the world of comedy lost one of its brightest stars. Jerry Lewis was no stranger to controversy during his decades-long career, but his impact on both Hollywood and comedy in general cannot be denied.
