Overview

TV child star of the '70s, Dickie Roberts is now 35 and parking cars. Craving to regain the spotlight, he auditions for a role of a normal guy, but the director quickly sees he is anything but normal. Desperate to win the part, Dickie hires a family to help him replay his childhood and assume the identity of an average, everyday kid.

    I bought this movie on a whim. It turned out to be one of the best and funniest movies I have ever seen. I highly recommend seeing it at least once. You won't be disappointed.
