He knows it's fake, but gets such a kick out of it. I guess a lot of the allure I have, is the nostalgic connection it gives me with my father. Here's a look back at the contribution this great art form has made to the celluloid world. You got to discover these on your own to truly appreciate them. This one is a sentimental favorite of mine starring Henry Winkler, and featuring Herve Villachze.
Henry plays a struggling actor who'll do anything to get work, including professional wrestling.
Directed by Carl Reiner, there's a lot of fun in this picture, especially the many characters Winkler takes on as a wrestler, to please the fans. Haven't seen this available on video, but it's on the tube once in a great while. Roddy Piper follows up his role in THEY LIVE with this great picture. The world is overrun by jumbo humanoid frogs. There's actually a sequel to this dog out somewhere in Videoland.
