The Apprenticeship of Duddy Kravitz

“There's a little bit of Duddy Kravitz in everyone.”

The younger son of a working-class Jewish family in Montreal, Duddy Kravitz yearns to make a name for himself in society. This film chronicles his short and dubious rise to power, as well as his changing relationships with family and friends. Along the way the film explores the themes of anti-semitism and the responsibilities which come with adulthood.

Directed by Ted Kotcheff, Gerald Schneider
