Description
An unflinching exploration of a father/son relationship, starring Colin Firth as Blake Morrison, a man who must deal with his father Arthur’s (Jim Broadbent) terminal illness and imminent death. Blake’s memories of everything funny, embarrassing and upsetting about his childhood and teens are interspersed with tender and heartrending scenes in the present, as he struggles to come to terms with his father—and their history of conflict—and learns to accept that one’s parents are not always accountable to their children. Co-starring Juliet Stevenson, Gina McKee, Claire Skinner and Matthew Beard. Directed by Anand Tucker (Shopgirl, Hilary and Jackie), from a screenplay by David Nicholls (Starter for 10), adapted from Blake Morrison’s novel of the same name.
