Book Reviews of The Film Club: A Memoir
Book Review: A Great Weekend Read
Summary: 5 Stars
I was drawn to this title based on a New York Times Book Review of this deeply satisfying book about a bold father whose ballsy choice to step out the way of a his resistant teen son's relationship to high school gave me hope that things tend to turn out the way they are meant to turn out. This story is affirmation of our kid's ability to work things out for themselves as long as we remain present and loving for the drama known as adolescence.
If you have a Jesse at home, or any troubled teenager, pick up this book and give it a chance to enlighten what you think you know about film, parenting and your kids.
Thank you David Gilmour and Jesse, for sharing your time with me!
