The Father - DVD

Proud 80-year old retiree Anthony (Best Actor Oscar-winner Anthony Hopkins) would thunder to his concerned daughter Anne (Olivia Colman) that he no longer needed a caretaker to assist him in his London flat. As the narrative proceeds, however, it becomes apparent that he's in denial about his encroaching dementia-and destined for a heartbreaking confrontation with the truth. Director Florian Zeller adapted his play for the screen; Mark Gattis, Imogen Poots, Olivia Williams, Rufus Sewell co-star. 97 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack; English.
