A Jerry Lewis Double Feature
Visit To A Small Planet

Visit
to a Small Planet (1960)
Directed byNorman Taurog
The
weirdest alien of the galaxy pays a visit to Earth Jerry Lewis is Kreton, a
childish alien who, against his teacher's will leaves his planet to visit the
Earth, and lands in the backyard of a famous television journalist who doesn't
believe in U.F.O's and aliens. Wanting to study humans but not able to fully
understand them, Kreton makes a mess out of it, generating a lot of comic
situations.
Gore Vidal, who wrote the original play, was upset with the choice of Jerry Lewis as the lead in the movie version. On Broadway, Vidal's play ran for 388 performances between Feb 7, 1957 and Jan 11, 1958, and won Cyril Ritchard, originator of the Kreton character, a 1957 Tony Award nomination for Best Actor in Play. But Jerry Lewis was a star, twelve times named to the Top Ten list of Box Office Stars, six times with partner Dean Martin (with whom he was the top star of 1952), and six times solo (ranking as high as #3 in 1958). He got the part.

Way... Way out
:The
Americans and Russians each have a two-person base on the Moon The Americans
have had to keep replacing their astronaut teams because they quickly go crazy;
they have been using only male astronauts on the unspoken assumption that this
would avoid any possibility of impropriety. The Russians, as godless Communists,
are under no such constraints, and their male-female team has remained
well-adjusted At the start of the film, a male and female American astronaut
team is sent up to replace the sex-starved all-male team. The government insists
on them being married first to preserve morality. Most of the story revolves
around the eventual consummation of this marriage of convenience, and around
their relationship with their Russian neighbors, who keep casually dropping by.
