Can't recall the title - he had to look after all these babies (five I think) and the townsfolk wound up creating a bronze statue of him surrounded by infants. It was really funny, but I cannot remember the title!

1. We like the two movies i named. We have overall a good opinion of the guy, without being inconditional fans. He isn't this much known. But i saw those two movies every few years aired on tv. People like them.
2. Possible. In France movies are often dubbed by talented people. The french version of Starsky & Hutch for an exemple have a lot of jokes that were added by the two guys who did the dubbing and that adds a lot to the complicity between the characters. The two actors who dubbed the series were friends and both big names in dubbing, one of them being also a big theater name.
I think that's Hegel or Goethe who had one of his texts very freely translated in french and found the result so wonderful that he retranslated himself in german the french translation.
I’ve been told my whole life that Jerry Lewis is a “comedian”, but I’ve been forced to accept that as true without much in the way of empirical evidence; his movie career seems to have ended around the time I was in kindergarten. (I’m 43) Therefore, as he grew older, I grew up in a world were Jerry Lewis wasn’t so much a comedian, but instead a “comedy genius”—that rare breed of comedian who is no longer expected to be funny, but who is instead expected to pontificate on the art of comedy by fawning admirers who will gush about how funny he (apparently) used to be.
In his first film starring role since 1995′s Funny Bones, Jerry Lewis starts work tomorrow in the starring role of the indie feature Max Rose. Directed by Daniel Noah from his script, the film is a drama about a jazz pianist who has recently lost his wife of over five decades. A discovery made days before her death causes Max to believe his marriage was a lie. He embarks on an exploration of his own past that brings him face to face with a menagerie of characters from a bygone era. Noah is making his directing debut.
While he has done stage work, the 86-year-old Lewis hasn’t done much in the way of films in a long time. Before Funny Bones his last big starring role came in 1983′s Martin Scorsese-directed The King Of Comedy, opposite Robert De Niro.
Lewis stars with Claire Bloom, Kevin Pollak, Argo‘s Kerry Bishe and Mort Sahl. It’s a reunion for Sahl and Lewis, as Sahl appeared on Lewis’ 1963 comedy variety series. The project was trotted out several Cannes Film Festivals ago, but then languished. Since then, Noah has gone on to partner with Elijah Wood and Josh C. Waller in The Woodshed, an indy production company with a bent towards genre films.
The film, which will shoot in Los Angeles, is produced by Mosaic Media Group’s Lawrence Inglee and Lightstream Pictures’ Garrett Kelleher.

Alas, the world seems to have forgotten about Lewis's overwrought starring performance as the father of a girl with severe epilepsy in the 1987 TV movie "Fight For Life".
