Somehow after all these years The Jerk remains one of my gaps in pop culture. I was a little young for it when it came out, and never caught up. That and Blazing Saddles are on my short list. I know, I know.
The thing about movies, every year they make new ones! No one can ever watch all the ones they "should" see. There's too many must-see movies for anyone to have seen them all. The best we can do is just enjoy/appreciate the ones we watch, and be okay missing the others (catching up when it makes sense to, but not worrying about it).
there's also not using the hands...i jerk my head back and the glasses fall back up my nose, sometimes (it's an inferior method); or using the back of your wrist if you are doing something like cooking.
there is a product that makes it so you don't have to push your glasses back up in place--it's a small silicone extra glasses arm that slides onto/shortens your glasses arms to tuck them properly behind your ears.
Wow that product seems incredibly obvious but I'd never heard of them. I know someone with too-long glasses arms who might be able to use something like that!
As for jerking your head back... I just tried and I think I got whiplash. Didn't move my glasses at all.
I use my elbows to push my glasses up.
I have many, many times wished for an Optigrab.

I'm in camp 4, for the reasons left in one of the comments. I have expensive glasses frames and want to keep them around for a long time.
Warning: don't use the Optigrab™. I used it and I am now a certified lonely guy, forced to stare at the tip of my own nose for eternity.
