EPISODE 39 - “Father Knows Best: Classic Cinema's Best (and Worst!) Dads” - 06/10/2024
When you stop to think about the great fathers of classic cinema, Atticus Finch, the mild-mannered Southern lawyer in “To Kill A Mockingbird” (1962), has to be at the top of the list. But who else would be on that list? And what about the horrible fathers of old Hollywood? As you scramble to find that last-minute tie or cologne for dear old Dad for Father’s Day, make sure you check out this week’s episode, where Steve and Nan celebrate some of old Hollywood’s most memorable fathers — the good and the bad.
