I have put together a list of over 50 Movies - that are great about Fathers! All these Movies have one thing in common... strong Father Roles. Hopefully you'll find one that will inspire you. Please leave a comment below if there is one you especially like or any movie you would like to suggest.
Father of the Bride
Daddy's little girl is getting married! This is a re-make movie... I have seen both and like this one best! Steve Martin is terrific as the Father who is struggling at letting his little girl go...
Father of the Bride 2
Daddy's little girl is expecting a baby... and guess what, Surprise! ... her Father & Mother are expecting, too! This is a great Family Comedy!
Life with Father
A terrific old-fashioned movie about a family and respecting one's father.
Father is a Bachelor
A beautiful story of a single man who takes upon raising 5 children as his own!
Father of the Bride (original)
The original movie starring Spencer Tracy as the worried Father and Elizabeth Taylor, as the blushing bride.

Cheaper by the Dozen
I love Steve Martin in this re-make comedy, too! He's portrays a great Father, even when he messes everything up!
Cheaper by the Dozen 2
This time the family is on vacation - and the Father has a hard keeping up with everyone.
Mr. Mom

Which Movies, above, do you like about Fathers? Any more suggestions?
I like Life with Father. We watch it every year on Fathers Day on TCM. If any of you have never seen it - I recommend you watch it. It's what families used to be like - wholesome, caring, honorable, and respectful.
ReplyDeleteHappy Fathers Day!
Great suggestions. You should also add - "Courtship of Eddie's Father". I like "Father of the Bride", too with Steve Martin best. He is the funniest Dad, ever!
