Friday Family Film Night: THE FATHER review

  • Summary

  • In which the Mister joins me in reviewing THE FATHER (1988), from a play from Florian Zeller, the film has a screenplay from Christopher Hampton and Florian Zeller and is directed by Zeller. Presented through the diminishing and confused perspective of an elderly man, Anthony (an absolutely heartbreakingly beautiful Sir Anthony Hopkins) suffering from dementia, this film tells the story of a father and his daughter (Olivia Colman as Anne) struggling to deal with his condition. The film clocks in at 1 h and 37 m, is rated PG-13 and is currently streaming on Starz but also available to buy/rent from Prime Video. Please note there are SPOILERS in this review.
