The movie, The Father, is so good I’m going to review it a day early. Opening tomorrow, starring Anthony Hopkins who plays a man suffering from early dementia. It gets more sever as time moves on, to the point he can’t remember his best friend or his daughter. The director Florian Zeller is genus as she makes his daughter, and friend appear different to him and at the same time appear different to us, the audience! We suffer the dementia along with him. This is a fabulous film making! It’s tragic yet funny in spots and there won’t be a dry eye in the house when credits roll! (Rated R) – (100 Minutes) – (4 Stars).
