The Apprenticeship of Duddy Kravitz

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

Overview

The younger son of a working-class Jewish family in Montreal, Duddy Kravitz yearns to make a name for himself in society.

Along the way the film explores the themes of anti-semitism and the responsibilities which come with adulthood.
