The Film Club
- Used - very good
Description
What follows is an unusual journey as week by week side by side they watch the world's best (and occasionally worst) films - from True Romance to Chunking Express A Hard Day's Night to Rosemary's Baby and La Dolce Vita to Giant. The films get them talking: about girls music heartbreak work drugs money friendship - but they also open doors to a young man's interior life at a time when a parent is normally shut out. Gradually the father's initial worries are set aside as he watches his son morph from chaotic teenager to self-assured adult - who even starts to get up before noon. As the film club moves towards its poignant and inevitable conclusion the young man makes a decision which surprises even his father...
The Film Club is a book that goes straight to the heart. Honest unsparing and emotive it follows one man's attempt to chart a course for his beloved son's rocky passage into adulthood.
