1:01Now PlayingThe new accusations of sexual assault and harassment made by two actresses who starred opposite comedy legend Jerry Lewis are no laughing matter.
Two of the “Nutty Professor” star’s leading ladies — Karen Sharpe and Hope Holiday — make startling revelations in “The Dark Side of a Hollywood Icon,” a new bombshell documentary dropped Wednesday by Vanity Fair.
Sharpe, 87, and Holiday, 91, were interviewed by Kirby Dick and Amy Ziering, the duo behind the controversial HBO docuseries “Allen v. Farrow.”
Golden Globe winner Sharpe recounted being cast opposite Lewis — who died in 2017 at the age of 91 — in the 1964 flick “The Disorderly Orderly.” She alleged that while she was in wardrobe getting fitted for her costumes, Lewis told everyone but her to exit the room. He then “started moving in on me” and “grabbed me.”
