Curiosidades
The original negative of the film was damaged during post-production, which resulted in the poor quality of all theatrical release prints.

Citas
Jane Powell: [watching a riot on TV] What do you expect if you keep taking people's jobs away?
Mark Varda: Got nothing to do with it.
Jane Powell: What do you mean?
Mark Varda: They don't want jobs. At least not the kind they're qualified to do. So even if we did manage to open all those steel mills and dog biscuit factories, we wouldn't get them to sign on.
Jane Powell: Are you saying they don't want to work?
Mark Varda: Oh, I dare say they wouldn't mind being president of IBM or a TV star. Or John McEnroe.

What a great movie!!

This movie solidified why I like Anthony Hopkins so much. He is seething with such rage and horror. It amazes me that he can act like this, but in some movies he can be so calm, like another film that was released the same year this one was, 84 Charring Cross Road (costarring the great Anne Bancroft.) The reason I love The Good Father is because it's a very interesting story and it shows several talents that hadn't quite made it yet. Hopkins hadn't yet made The Silence of the Lambs. Jim Broadbent, who plays the man Hopkins' character is trying to help get his son back, hadn't won his Oscar for his role in Iris. Also Mike Newell, the director, hadn't made a name for himself either. After this film, he made Four Weddings and a Funeral. If you want to see a great drama with superb performances, watch this film. If you like Hopkins in anything, then definitely see this movie.
