Le Cinema de Papa (1970)

Synopsis
Claude Berri plays himself as he relates his own experiences through youth and adolescence. His father (Yves Robert) owns a profitable fur shop but longs to be an actor like his father and grandfather before him. Initially, Claude's father hopes his son will take over the fur shop, but he later gives in to Claude's desire to become involved in filmmaking and even pursues a late-blooming career move as a thespian himself. Alain Cohen portrays the younger Claude who must set a good example for his young sister. Henia Ziv plays the stereotypical Jewish mother who holds the family together. ~ Dan Pavlides, All Movie Guide
