The Father

[naomi24]

For fear of spoiling it for you, I won't say much about what is described as a psychological drama - but a very well-deserved Oscar for Anthony Hopkins. Absolutely superb!!

It's on Netflix.

Love that film, but then I don't think there has been an Anthony Hopkins film that I don't like.

[naomi24]

Nor me, barsel.

I saw this a couple of years ago, fabulous cast, beautiful script.
It is one of those films that will stay with me but I’ll never watch again.

Oooh, thanks Naomi, will add that to my list, always looking for something worth a watch.

Nor mine entirely, mally. Antony Hopkins brilliant as always....it just didn't feel right. It's a difficult subject to portray, but I have never felt it's a simple as eyesight or non- recognition. Nice try, if clichéd.

Anthony Hopkins and Olivia Colman, are both excellent actors and Rufus Sewell my absolute heartthrob, what's not to like?

[pixie374]

That's why I liked it :-)

I would say I hope you enjoy it, vagus, but ‘enjoy’ isn’t the right word. Like Barry, I won’t forget it.
