Mr. Mom (1983)
I'm going to watch this in a minute. I have a bit of a penchant for light American eighties comedies and this one was great - some very good lines and actually, tackling a issue that is just as hotly debated now as it was then..and likely will always be.. but so lightheartedly you don't realise some of the points it is making and it doesn't detract from the humour...surely the best way to get any ideas across. It might seem vaguely insulting to suggest that men cannot get their acts together to stay at home and look after the kids and in the first half the humour mainly stems from this. I know there are many very good fathers out there - but there are still many areas of this that are way up in the air and discussed today. But it tackles this issue head on and all the relevant points along the way - how social conditioning, the need to feel macho etc..can all affect this.. without ever being heavy handed. Anyway - I have been bought some posh biscuits and I have some posh tea, so whilst my daughter is rampaging at my friends house..I'm going to give it another go and I expect it will work like a kind of mini therapy if memory serves! Yes, it's on Living +1 Last edited by MB; 12-10-2008 at 12:59 PM.. |
