Henry Winkler whose "Fonzie" characterization captivated millions of TV fans every week on the long-running Happy Days, portrays an outrageously self-confident but out-of-work actor, a young man who dreams of stardom and leaves college to pursue fame and fortune, searching for it in the most unlikely of arenas-the wrestling ring. Winkler, in this incisive film role, and Kim Darby, as his loving wife who finds it difficult to cope with her husband's antics, are sublime. The witty, well-paced script is imaginatively directed by comic great Carl Reiner.

A boy and his brother run away from home and hitch cross country with the help of a girl they meet to compete in the ultimate video game championship.
