Enter Laughing

This coming of age story, based on a semi-autobiographical book by Carl Reiner, follows David Kolowitz, a recent high school graduate temporarily working in a small machine repair shop. His boss, Mr. Foreman wants to train him to take over the business. His quintessential loving but domineering Jewish mother and Casper Milquetoast father want him to become a druggist. David has other ideas. He dreams of being an actor, even though his acting experience is limited to doing impressions of Ronald Coleman and Louis Armstrong at high school events and for his admiring friend Marvin. When David answers a newspaper "casting call " ad for acting students to work at a down-on-its-luck theater, his love affair with the theater flowers and even Mama's iron cast apron strings can't hold him back. Acting not being his only passion, there are also romantic complication with his girl friend Wanda, a sexy secretary and his leading lady.
