His Father's Son (1976)

Radames Pera: John Sanderson Edwards

Quotes 

• John Sanderson Edwards : I wrote you a letter yesterday. I'd like to read it to you.

  Isaiah Edwards : There ain't no need for that.

  John Sanderson Edwards : Yes there is. Isn't there?

  Isaiah Edwards : [Cries]  Yeah.

  John Sanderson Edwards : Dear Mr. Edwards. It's seems so funny writing that - Mr. Edwards. I want so much to just say Pa or Dad or something, but I can't. Not unless I know that you want me to, and I just don't feel like you do. I guess it's because I'm not the kind of son you want. Maybe I could be someday. I'll try. I'll try as hard as I can to make you proud of me. But I'm afraid. Because I know in my heart that I can't do what you want me to do. Please try to understand. Please love me anyway.
