Londoner Anthony is unwilling to admit to his daughter Anne that he is no longer able to care for himself. When Anne brings in a nurse, he goes from charming to insulting. One day Anthony wakes up bewildered in a home he doesn’t recognize, and it becomes clear how reality is slipping from his grasp.
A study in love and loss that ratchets tension like a thriller, The Father forges a mosaic from its shards of heartbreak and lucid beauty. Even in the context of a career as garlanded as that of Anthony Hopkins, his mercurial, Oscar®-winning performance opposite Olivia Colman takes some beating.
