				- perfect “My 
				whole life is have to." - Gil Buckman Why 
				watch this? ... it's great film about a normal family with its 
				traumas, issues and events. 
				Plot Summary: 
				The film follows the chaotic and often humorous lives of the 
				Buckman family, showcasing the joys and tribulations across 
				multiple generations as they navigate the complexities of 
				raising children. The film explores various parenting styles and 
				the challenges each family member faces, including career 
				pressure, marital difficulties, and the struggle to understand 
				and guide their children through different stages of life.  Dad's Preview: 
				Steve Martin plays an excellent father in many flicks. 
				Ironically, in 
				real-life he bore no children. This film touches on the things that 
				parents do to deal with "family things" 
				that are often out of their control: a child who lacks confidence; an 
				adult 
				son who always makes bad decisions; parents who obsess with 
				perfection. Those are serious topics, and Parenthood covers them 
				in a way that makes you laugh. You'll enjoy the warm performances from a 
				stellar all-star cast.
