Best Father's Day Movie?

Posted on 06/18/2017 5:05:20 PM PDT by Sybeck1

Flipping around the channels I found The Cowboys on TV. A great Father's Day movie given how the Duke turned all those young biys to men into that movie. What are some other goid ones?

Check out Secondhand Lions with Duvall and Caine. Great movie about raising a boy and what manhood is, leavened with some really funny humor. Never got the attention it should have, IMHO.

“I’m Hub McCann. I’ve fought in two World Wars and countless smaller ones on three continents. I led thousands of men into battle with everything from horses and swords to artillery and tanks. I’ve seen the headwaters of the Nile, and tribes of natives no white man had ever seen before. I’ve won and lost a dozen fortunes, KILLED MANY MEN and loved only one woman with a passion a FLEA like you could never begin to understand. That’s who I am. NOW, GO HOME, BOY!”

Hub: Sometimes the things that may or may not be true are the things a man needs to believe in the most. That people are basically good; that honor, courage, and virtue mean everything; that power and money, money and power mean nothing; that good always triumphs over evil; and I want you to remember this, that love... true love never dies. You remember that, boy. You remember that. Doesn’t matter if it’s true or not. You see, a man should believe in those things, because those are the things worth believing in.
