''Visit to a Small Planet'' is a 1960 Paramount Pictures comic science fiction film starring Jerry Lewis and based on a play by Gore Vidal. The picture was released on February 4, 1960. ''Visit to a Small Planet'' debuted as a television production, then was reworked as a Broadway play starring Cyril Ritchard and Eddie Mayehoff. ==Plot== Kreton (Jerry Lewis) is an alien from outer space who is fascinated by human beings. Against the wishes of his teacher, he repeatedly visits Earth. During his latest visit, his teacher reluctantly agrees to allow him to stay and study the humans. He becomes friends with a suburban family and stays with them, after they agree to keep his alien status a secret. Along the way, he falls in love with their daughter (Joan Blackman). However, there is a force field around him that prevents any physical contact as his race has abolished any form of affection. After repeatedly breaking the one rule from his teacher, which is not to get involved in the humans' lives, he is stripped of all his powers so that he can realize that being human isn't always happy: it comes with other less desired emotions such as pain, sadness, and jealousy. Once his cover is blown on Earth and he is reported to the police, he decides that those emotions are not worth the trouble and he returns to his own planet. ==Cast== * Jerry Lewis as Kreton * Joan Blackman as Ellen Spelding * Earl Holliman as Conrad * Fred Clark as Major Roger Putnam Spelding * John Williams as Delton * Jerome Cowan as George Abercrombie * Gale Gordon as Bob Mayberry * Lee Patrick as Rheba Spelding * Milton Frome as Police Commissioner * Ellen Corby as Mrs. Mabel Mayberry * Barbara Lawson as Beatnik Dancer Desdemona * Buddy Rich as Beatnik Drummer 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Visit to a Small Planet」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
