Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Henry Winkler shines in this charming, romantic comedy about an actor who finally makes it big - in the world of professional wrestling. Winkler plays Andy Schmidt, an actor who despite his formal training finds himself unemployed after graduation. His brash demeanor may have cost him an audition or two, but it's perfectly suited to the world of professional wrestling. Soon enough, Andy will have to learn to balance the world of Pro Wrestling stardom with his marriage to Mary (Kim Darby) who loves Andy despite the larger than life world he inhabits. With a screenplay by Steve Gordon (Arthur) and directed by Carl Reiner, The One and Only is the rare kind of romantic comedy that can tug on your heart, but also make you stand up and cheer.

5.0 out of 5 stars This comedy is the One and Only!, June 19, 2001
By Martin Morris (Amarillo, Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The One and Only [VHS] (VHS Tape)
An excellent comedy that will sure to make your sides ache. This is about an actor (Henry Winkler) that is out of work and cannot find an acting job. He meets, falls in love with, and marries a beautiful girl (Kim Darby). He finally does find work that is kind of along the lines of acting: he becomes a professional wrestler. There are the hillarious challenges of him having to explain not only to his wife, but also to his inlaws, the nature of his employment. You will enjoy The One And Only.

5.0 out of 5 stars You dirty rat........:)., April 30, 2007
This review is from: The One and Only [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This is one of the funniest movies I've ever seen. The scene at the dinner table of Henry Winkler doing his impression of James Cagney is sooooooo funny, especially when you consider that he's meeting his girlfriends parents for the first time, it'll have you rolling on the floor.........:). This movie should have been released along time ago on DVD. How about less slasher type movies on DVD and others of low quality and putting this great comedy on that format. Get this movie...you won't regret it.
