Review of The Father (2020) by Lisalr1 — 17 Mar 2021
Sir Anthony Hopkins and Olivia Colman are sublime in "The Father," co-written and directed by Florian Zeller based on his Play. Oscar-winner Anthony Hopkins is simply masterful as an aging man suffering memory loss and Academy Award winner Olivia Colman ("The Favourite") is his daughter and caretaker Anne, equally skillful in her supporting role.
The moments of quiet in this film, particularly at the end, are as powerful and significant to the story as the heart-wrenching, emotionally effective performances from the cast.
