Jerry Lewis Cinderfella dance

[@Nacho-Mamma]

Most people have forgotten that along with being a trained actor, singer & comedian, Jerry Lewis was also a trained dancer! Most of his comedic dancing, he developed himself. He was a rare gem.

[@elephantintheroom5678]

I always thought he was a dancer, more than anything.

[@janetgilbertson6367]

He was never pretentious and , I think, truly enjoyed his "work." He certainly threw his all into whatever he did. I always liked him!

[@greeneyesdante]

Indeed! One of a kind! ❤

[@donnadelgado8164]

Iirc he was also instrumental in developing simultaneous video recording/playback technology and used it when filming The Bellboy.

[@kemalcemen4719]

Er ist nicht selten sondern nicht zu finden wie Diamant und Gold ...Außerdem wissen viele Menschen über ihn bescheid sonst wäre er nicht einzigartig ❤

[@lindaschrager1133]

In those days, you had to be a triple threat in order to succeed in show business. Sing, dance and act! Jerry did it all plus comedy!

[@feggyduss6463]

Yet his "schtick" wore thin on Television. He was good for about five minutes, and then it was over. LOL.

Jerry Lewis and Danny Kaye were two of my favorites as a kid! They were so funny. They did it all, too. They sang, they danced, they did the comedy, they acted in a bunch of movies that broke me up when I watched them perform. Lewis also played the drums as well. I don't remember if Kaye played an instrument. I just remember them being funny and endlessly versatile in all the roles they played. I'm glad to have run across this old sequence from Cinderfella.

[@lindaschrager1133]

Ah yes! Danny Kaye indeed! Both were triple threats! Sing, dance, act and comedy.

[@judithf9297]

Oh,absolutely,both of them were great at so many things. I don’t know if Danny Kaye played an instrument,but he definitely conducted several symphony orchestras, the New York Philharmonic among them, he knew so much music by heart,yet he didn’t read music at all. Both of them were great entertainers for sure, I will say Jerry Lewis was an amazing dancer too.

[@PaulSmith-pz9eq]

Both amazing people!

[@LuciusLady-to8zo]

It's hard to take your eyes off him; he's that good. Never realized just how good a dancer he was. You gave us many good years so thanx Jerry. ❤😮 ❤

You are so very right These days they don't make iconic classic movies like this 😔

[@RogerSales]

Simply genius! This is when actors and actresses had to sing, dance and deliver lines all with A+ quality!

[@equine2020]

Yes. They had talent. And kept their clothes on. No showing body parts.

[@theauntofdragons]

I was thinking that the other day. I remember being in school and my teachers emphasizing you HAVE to be a TRIPLE THREAT or you'll be looked over ....now you don't even have to know how to act. Smh.

[@Merle-kz4kq]

I can very readily agree with each and every comment of the above. Wouldn’t change any thing. They were indeed , super stars .

[@strider8933]

One of the most underrated dancers of the era. An all around, multitalented actor. In an age when one HAD to be. Bravo!

These old movies are always a joy to watch!😊

[@OriginalAnonymous1]

Count Basie was the greatest jazz pianist, organist, bandleader, and composer to have ever lived.

[@jazmaan]

Just saw an interview w/Jerry on PBS where he says the music was prerecorded. The set was built over two adjacent soundstages to give him the scope he wanted. He picked the camera angles, framing ("Always show Jerry from head to toe), and determined "no cut-aways, the whole thing has to be one continuous shot." AND THEN HE IMPROVISED THE ENTIRE STAIRWAY DANCE IN ONE TAKE! "I had no idea what Jerry was going to do until the music started!" Sheer genius.

[@mdeborah827]

Stairway scene inspiration was from the Nicholas Brothers scene in Stormy Weather. He knew better thwn to try that one. Segregation was the rule ofmthe day so many entertainers went to Black clubs with intent to steal ideas and then copy it. His performance is enjoyable but doesn't hold a candle to the hjghest standards of the originals they copied from.

[@ellebelle4094]

Thank you for this amazing story. He was genius. Catching a dancer from head to toe is vital to enjoying the dance skills. I hate when there is just shots from waist or shoulders, or just feet. I feel cheated. Dance is a full body sport.

[@im1who84u]

Maybe I am ignorant of what "cut-aways"are. I think I am seeing plenty of cut-aways.

[@mdeborah827]

@@im1who84u Compare his scene to that of the Nicholas Brothers in Stormy Weather and you will see sheer genius.

[@jazmaan]

@@im1who84u I think he added the shots of the girl later. But he had continuous shots from two angles to work with.

He's not gone... I know...

So athletic and I love when he does the jump around thing. I don't recall this movie but I so enjoyed and was a big fan of his. I actually had a crush. It sadden me when I did see an interview during his later years, that life did not treat him so well. And now that I am 59, I realize nothing can last forever.

for all hi goofy acting he really danced very well and with such grace. He hid behind the goofy acting but was really such a graceful dancer.

@Tracy Daniels Tracy, you are absolutely right! Loved your comment!

[@marym5037]

@Tracy Daniels happy holidays to you 🙂🙂

Agreed! It was the same with his singing too, he often sang with the silly nasal comedy voice, but his actual singing voice was so lovely!! 😍❤️ When he sang with Dean Martin he would always do the funny comedy voices, when in reality he could carry a tune just as well as Dino!

he was an amazing dancer. His sense of rhythm was absolute.

Not the best dancer but he always made us laugh
