| Testimonials:When Did You Last See Your Father? is an eloquent and affecting evocation of a man who remains bigger than life even as he approaches death. Joe Morgenstern , Wall Street JournalIt's a great song of innocence and embarrassment, with a lively, gregarious performance at its centre by Jim Broadbent as Arthur and a quieter but no less effective one by debutant Beard. Anthony Quinn , IndependentI have never really seen anything quite like it, and I must wholeheartedly recommend this wondrous work for its magnificently moving performances by Jim Broadbent and Colin Firth.Andrew Sarris , The New York Observer | | Synopsis:When Did You Last See Your Father? is Blake Morrison's moving and candid memoir of his father in the weeks leading up to his death. When Arthur Morrison was diagnosed with terminal cancer he had only a few weeks left to live. Morrison traveled to Yorkshire to stay with his mother in the village where he grew up. He visited his father at the hospital where he had spent so much time with his own patients as a GP. As his father's condition worsened Morrison contemplated their shared experiences, the intimacies and the irritations of their relationship. After his father's death Morrison questions the nature of the bond between them, articulately expressing the contradictions, frustrations, love and loss bound into the complicated relationships which most of us have with our parents as we grow up. | | Official Website |
