The Father Movie Review: An experience that should not be missed.

The Father: (2020/1:37m)

Some memories stay with us, and some eventually fades away, what if the that some which fade away is most of it?

My heart is heavy and my eyes are filled with tears. Such is impact of what we call an absolute masterpiece created by the Writer-Director & French Novelist Florian Zeller.

How beautifully the altering visuals taken from a mind of a dementia patient are put in the screen, with horror-like execution which is equally disturbing, that plays with your mind and keep you puzzled till the very last scene. Slow moving and sometimes still frames, a state of mind which Anthony hardly achieves, speaks loudly. People and names often keeps changing and even the space, position of objects and lighting keeps changing keeping the audience a view that the place is changing but not actually changing.

And when we talk about acting, this could not have been possible without two powerful performances by Oscar winning Sir Anthony Hopkins as Anthony and Olivia Colman as his daughter Anne.

It is not just a movie, but an experience that should not be missed.

Available only on rent on various platforms.
