CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Frank (Jason Robards) asks Gil (Steve Martin) for his advice and the two have a frank conversation about what makes a good father.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
This feel-good ensemble comedy tracks a quartet of suburban siblings and their families over the course of a single summer. Hardworking Gil Buckman (Steve Martin) and his stay-at-home wife, Karen (Mary Steeenburgen), have just a few months to help their oldest son, Kevin (Jasen Fisher), overcome his high-strung behavior problems before he'll be relegated to special-education classes. Gil's difficult relationship with his own father, Frank (Jason Robards), has led him to become a would-be super-dad for his three kids, so he takes his son's difficulties more than a little personally. Gil's sister, Helen (Dianne Wiest), is trying to raise a moody, adolescent son (Leaf Phoenix) and an independent-minded daughter (Martha Plimpton) with no help from her well-off ex-husband, who's more interested in his new wife and family. Gil and Helen's sister, Susan (Harley Jane Kozak), meanwhile, must participate in the too-scripted Big Life Plans of her anal-retentive husband, Nathan (Rick Moranis), whose overachiever zeal infects even their toddler daughter. When long-lost brother Larry (Tom Hulce) show up with yet another get-rich-quick scheme, he brings with him a surprise addition to the family. Screenwriters Babaloo Mandel, Lowell Ganz, and Ron Howard negotiate their varied subplots with a deftness and comedic touch that transforms this conflicted clan into a suburban everyfamily.

I watch this movie so much as a kid laughin at the funny scenes while being too young to understand the message it was sending but watching it as an adult it really hits hard! To the point that it has me in tears literally
Omg me too! I’m 42 and I grew up with this movie. Watched it a dozen times when I was younger. Now that I’m old and a mom, the message is so much clearer to me
@@CJLOVE23 yea I'm 43 so we right at the same age. Very relatable
The perfect Father's Day video...perfectly describes the joys AND heartbreaks of being a dad. Truly incredible screenwriting...
And good acting. Great ensemble cast. That last line Robards says..."He's my son"...Brings a lump to my throat every time I watch it.
This really does hit home for me. I had a really bad accident over the summer where I fractured ribs on both sides, fractured pieces of 2 lumbar discs, and needed 9 staples in the back of my head.
My Dad took care of me for 2 months. He told me that seeing me in the hospital bed was one of the worst moments in his life. He couldn’t take the heart break of almost losing me.
That’s what being a good father is all about. You never stop worrying or caring for your kids.
This is a powerful scene.
What he says about _never_ scoring that touchdown. So true. Almost painful to realize, but true.
You may not make that touchdown. But for a short while at least enjoy the victory lap..
I forgot how powerful and truly great this scene is. Two great actors in a great movie.
Jason Robards... SUCH a good actor.
+Charles Klatt He surely was!!
One of the best
If you read Steve Martin’s book “Born Standing Up” you realize how similar the relationship was between Steve and his real life dad
Just finished watching Robards in 1962's so-so, but very watchable, Tender Is the Night, which lead me to revisit his awesomeness in Parenthood.
My favorite scene is his exchange with his grandson Cool about Cool's dad Larry disappearing, and would he like to come live with him and his grandma.
Cool then asked Robards if his daddy was ever coming back, and Robards perfectly delivers the line:
"No."
I had no idea that book had been made into a movie. It is one of my favorites. And to hear Robards was in it....I think I will watch this tonight
Amazing how good this scene is. From father to son to father to son. Gil is just like Frank and they have the same emotions and challenges just in another time frame. Like my father to me, and me to my son.
This is now my favorite moment in the movie. A moment that flew over our heads as kids when we first seen it. We got caught up in the general drama with the kids and the lighthearted family stuff and chalked this scene down to some boring yawnable moment that we simply weren't able to grasp and appreciate ("Ignorance is bliss..."); other than his son was in trouble and he was stressed out.
It's profound though. All those rite of passages just breeze by you. Indeed....There really isn't an end zone.
This is a quotable moment in the film that I return to and keep with me. It's even somewhat therapeutic to me. And Jason Robards nailed it.
this was such an important scene for me.. I was 19 and a new mom.. it made me see my parents in such a different way..
This movie is not important to me. Hairspray is important to me.
I'm not sure why this scene makes me emotional. I guess it's the realisation of the depths of how much I love my children and that I will never, ever stop worrying about them. Tough gig this parenthood stuff
Two legendary actors Steve Martin and Jason Robards 🥰 This dialogue is so strong Frank asking Gil for his advice Showing his emotional side😍 It is very powerful It is an amazing film with a huge cast list ❤️
This scene really is emotional and shows Gil and his dad bonding when they were never close before. I'm not a parent (and don't ever plan to be) but it's true you never stop loving them just because they get older.
I wish that were true for everyone. You are a very fortunate man.
Probably the best scene in the movie. Anyone looking to have a child at a young age should watch this.
Ron Howard is a legend!! loved him in Happy Days!! Love his directing talent!! & Now his daughter is an awsome actress!! Good work Ron!!!👍👍👍👍👍
"Father and son - both proud, both stubborn, more alike than either of them were prepared to admit. A lifetime spent building emotional barriers; they are very difficult to break down"
Captain Jean-Luc Picard
I think this is the reconciliation between them in this movie. There's no apologies, yet he admits Gil is a good father and Gil admits he's in no position to judge
sliat1981 the scene before this when Larry said “I am not Gil” and all the old man did was give him a look like “Damn right you’re not” was a revelation for the character.
Gil was a great man...flawed but he was a great husband and father. Frank was no prize as a father to Gil but he did raise and love all 4 of his kids and he still obviously loves them very much. This scene is the turning point of the entire film and gives Frank and Gil both the confidence and love they needed to push through their problems. Cool got a happy ending by staying with his grandparents instead of his scumbag father.
Frank got a do over for what Larry failed to be
And yet Frank realised he was wrong about Larry all along.
One of the best scenes of the movie and filled with such true statements.
Gil: My whole life is "Have to!" Isn't that how it is when you're working, trying to raise a family?
one of the greatest movies of all time
Agree
anastasia22059 I would like to have a link to Hairspray please.
I agree. This film is flawless.
I wouldn't say flawless, it was a very good movie
I’m going through this right now. Parenting adult children is so difficult
Often more difficult than parents of young children can possible realize, yes. I'm with you.
Stop doing it. They are adults. They must make their own way.
One thing is to parent a child/adult and another is to give parental advice...
@@davida6146 I was one of those obnoxious people who was very critical of other people's parenting (not to their face). Then I had kids of my own. Now I shut the hell up.
@@bertramwinslowiii2119 lol did you become a parent within the last 2 months?
the guy playing the grandfather did an AMAZING acting job in this movie, especially the scene where he finally gives up on his son
That's Jason Robards, who was one of the finest actors of any generation. He won consecutive Oscars for Best Supporting Actor in 1976-77, one of the very few people to do so. Sadly, Robards passed away in 2000, and he was always one of my favorites to watch.
Yes, Jason Robards brought it in this movie. Look at how he uses his face and body language.
This movie would have been so much lesser without Jason Robards. He was perfectly cast in his role - love the guy.
Jason Robards.
He's right you know. You don't cross the goal line and spike the ball or do the dance. But it's the EFFORT you make to try and get there, THAT'S what matters. That's what makes it all worthwhile. It's not about winning the game, it's about getting to play.
I think what he meant to say is that no matter how successful you (or they) have become, the concern for family is always there.
I think Gil needed to hear what his dad told him. He’s constantly worried that Kevin’s going to be some mass shooter or valedictorian, and it’ll all rest on how good of a dad he is. There won’t be some great crowning moment. You never cross the goal line. It never ends. It’s ironic is still being patented by his father.
rip jason robards. fine actor.
He was amazing here. And in Magnolia on his death bed telling us the virtues of regret.
Maybe it's just me, but I think this is the best movie starring Steve Martin.
Amazing acting moment when Robards almost embraces Martin but stops.....so real...both of them....wow.
I think because Frank was such a rough around the edges, old school character, it was the best he could do. And even that was stepping out for him.
jason robards was a great actor
When my dad went on strike in 1975 my grandmother helped with car payments until the strike was settled. When a disease wiped out my in-laws hogs (with no livestock insurance) in 1980 and my wife thought she'd have to drop out of college her grandmother came through with the money. And when I needed a little help when I was out of work in the recession of 1990 my widowed mother helped us out.
Jason Robards is right. In essence you're never "done" with your kids. Our two children, now in their late 20's, were raised right and are stable. But if they need our help we, thankfully, are in a position to assist. It's just something you do. It isn't a bad reflection on the younger generation. You just do it because they'll be your kids past the day you die. And that's what family does.
Robards was brilliant in this scene
I too totally appreciate the "touchdown" part. Whenever you think you've got a problem solved, or a worry down away with, there's always a different problem or another worry tomorrow...and the day after that. And the day after that, and.....
It's not necessarily doom and gloom. Just one of the less light-hearted realities of being a parent.
Robards was a walking talking master class.
I watched this movie when it came out and many times since then. Each time I feel Jason Robards pain. He’s right. They’re always your kids. It never ends. Best part of the movie for me.
Jason Robards acts Steve Martin off the screen in this movie.
"Larry" seems to be the kind of person lifted up on a pedestal by the MTV crowd. Hell of a good scene.
Hollywood .. please make movies like this again
💯💯💯
So powerful @ 2:51 imo for people approaching 40....father looks @ him with a smile....kids having behavior issues @ school?job/career as shaky as ever?...normal life stuff @ your age kid, it’ll be 👌🏼 👍🏼..the same way people our age look @ teenagers when they feel their world is about to collapse...awesome..
this was a very good movie and as a new father this scene takes on a whole new direction of understanding, the constant worry, stress, fear, pain that you will fail as a father. when you go from one day living your lifer just for you to the next day the only thing that matters to you in this world is making sure your son or daughter is happy and has a normal happy home to grow up in so he is prepared to go out into the world to become a success.. i use to read comments or told such comments from otherd but they never meant anything to me till now.. the fear of letting your son down, failing him, doing what is best for him. even more so when you have a partner who acts as if none of these things are big deals and doesnt matter
No matter how hard you try to be a good father you cannot guarantee that your children will be happy, well-adjusted, successful or anything else. You do the best you can. The rest is up to them.
the best scene of the film
I saw this scene and I got so scared my Dad would hate me like this father said he hated his son for thinking he had Polio. When I was a baby I was sick and not expected to live. I thought "well Dad and Mom must hate me then cause I was sick and learn different now". They had to assure me that was not the case. The things kids come up with. Next was my fear of Santa kidnapping me and turning me into an elf. I will save that story for another post, maybe for a "It's a Wonderful Life" post.
My uncle is like larry. youngest of the family but instead of gambling he's into drugs. it's sad but there's not much you can do for people who don't want to change.
He's still my son!!! Always 💖 .
This scene is just one of the reasons the movie is among my top 10
Sesh
Breathtaking amazing!
SESH 01:06
The grandpa (Jason Robard's character) was 64 and seemed 80. Gil was only 35 and looked 50. Why did they make them that young when they didn't look it?
64 looks a whole lot different these days than it did when I was little. Robards looks more like the 64 that I saw in my aunt's and uncles when I was a kid. I think life was just harder for those people and by the later years, it showed
Martin went grey early
Martin was 39 when he played this part...I had to look it up too cause it so took me out of the movie when he said he was 35
At the time Jason Robards was actually 67 and Steve Martin was 44.
@@mariomanningfan For sure...64 is the new 40, unless you're on meth, then 24 is the new 64.
“My career is in the shithouse” that line always cracks me up!
Notice that cable replaced "shithouse" with "toilet".
one of my favourite films of all time
1:02 SESH
One of the greatest scenes in movie history
Underrated scene.
I used to watch this as a kid on vhs
Bones-Bummer
sesh
Bones shmones
SESH
No truer words were ever spoken
The poor dad has to still clean up after larry & now his son. Sux bc hes 64 & still has to worry & care for larry who will never grow up. " u think I want him to get hurt hes my son " heartbreaking
Totally understand this, so true it never ends
Ahh, the good ole days! A 40 year old man had the same hair color as his 64 year old father. Nowadays a 50 year old man just has grey on his temples and beard at worst.
Steve Martin was only 44 here.
Steve Martin has been perpetually 44 since the 70s
JR at his best
Epic scene featuring two seasoned pro's
sesh
Ive never been the kind of person who used to hug parents and all that, Im terrible with touching, Im introvert and shy, I feel awkward for the most silly thing you could ever imagine, yet Im doing my best to do different with my 9yo daughter, to hug as much as I can... so that in the future when I get old and lonely she hugs me when Im sad. Im 43 now
english in not my first language
One of my favorite movies
Hairspray is one of my favorite movies and I WANT TO WATCH IT NOW!
Love this movie!!!
This clip perfectly illustrates the difference between a truly outstanding actor like Robards and a completely average (at best) actor like Steve Martin. The gulf in talent and ability is enormous.
You got that right. Steve Martin is a comedian first and an actor second. He's likable and funny but he never quite cuts it as a serious actor, IMO.
That's true. There's an emotional depth which only a real actor can bring to a part.
I never should have had 4
Lol
integrity vs despair
1:44 - :51 He was either 37 or 36 when Larry was born.
"I never should have had four..." and Martin looks uncomfortable as his wife has just told him she's pregnant with their fourth kid.
I really don't like the idea how Larry bullied his father and just barge with a child without telling them and abandon the family
I am not joking this movie was funny but actually depressing at times
It's interesting how Gil puts down Larry all the time then later in the film he does some of the same mistakes himself (leaving his job while throwing childish tantrums about not getting his own way in the office, leaving his job while his wife is pregnant, and still chooses not to return to work (though he later does).
tell myself i want sun then i produce rain
Never not knowing where I came I hold on like I like this pain
Tom Hulce should have won an Oscar for this film. Jason Robarbs plays his formula older crusty man character which he did in all his films.
Really? He was already Oscar nominated for Amadeus.
Questions: 1. When Larry goes to Chile what about his mob debt? Will his dad still pay? It's not so easy as those guys charge rising interest rates. 2. How does Larry support himself and get money for gambling? Does he have an occasional job? 3. What became of Larry's hydrophonic scheme? It's never brought up again.
In case you forgot or have never seen this film, the setup for the clip is this: Steve Martin is a father struggling with his own children, when his younger reckless brother (Tom Hulce) shows up owing a large gambling sum to a group of shady bookies, the Patriarch (Jason Robards) agrees, and this brings out some held father-son tension. Martin's character is generally the responsible son, and yet has always felt less favored by the father (Robards).
BONES
sesh
god this is such a perfect movie.
LEMME OUTTA HERE, MANGOFACE!
you worry to much
I've got one perfect kid (daughter) and one relentlessly, loudly, proudly imperfect kid (son). So ... what does that say about me as a father?
It shows that as a parent you don't shape your child into whatever you want them to be. You can't. You are just one of many influences on what kind of person they turn out to be and most of it is beyond your control.
I wish Hollyweird made movies like this now.
Anywhere.
This movie was so popular and comedic at the time it came out with the Baby Boomer’s ruling the roost, Generation X’ers starting to find themselves and Millennials were just toddlers. But this was the really serious note of the movie. A black sheep in the family a late-wave Baby Boomer on the cusp of being an X’er that’s never been stable and his Greatest Generation father about to retire and made him the Golden Child, yet he was completely irresponsible compared to the other 3 that all went on to careers and raised families.
1:44 - :50 64 - 27 = He was 37 when Larry was born.
Marty Keaton
actually he was 37.
Larry wasn't 21, he was 27. That's what he says.
Fixed.
..yeppers my mom had me when she was 33 and my dad was 42 ....now one of my closest friends is 53 his wife is 31 and they have two kids girl is 5 years olds and the boy just turned 3 .....I am 45 and my ex thinks now at 32 he wants to have a kid with me....jezzzz * go figure *
hippie chic - I gotta tell ya. ..I had a surprise at 39, and another 4 years later. Wild ride? Yes - but my life is so much richer for it. My older kids got hands on practice with babies/ toddlers, and I've learned not to sweat the little things. Fate is funny like that. ..
Can someone explain why in another scene when Cool asks if his dad is ever coming back and Frank says no? When Larry said he only wanted to go to Chile for a couple of months....
Baby Suri it was all bullshit, and Frank knew it. He was being honest with Cool. He knew he'd never see Larry again.
Grandpa was making sure Cool knew he couldn’t depend on Larry. Grandpa gets a second chance to make things right by keeping Cool safe.
Pretty good
Remember back when people used to retire at 65?
Meanwhile we got people running for President in their 70s.
His old man realizes he was a shi**y father. Look what he did to Larry.
Just hang in there.
felt like my dads jaw was held together with string, double string, had to consult with Poirot about my Richard Parker (and those in testimonial year)
can't imagine what it's like to be my sisters, mum and dad everlasting worry about their fam upside down, bet their jumping for joy now though, im made of money i heard, wow
on the surface, dad looks calm and ready, don't know how much he suffered or if he's still workin to get me to work to pay it off, his words not mine i dont need to make a mint dealin like moff, and maybe the decision didn't have to be that way and i would be IBH to die trying
so its just all about what are my plans now? think i need to make sure i don't get too stressed, dont stress the words, i will have stress in my life, stress the words, Insert Blankness into my mind Here, and realise hatred for the system is no plan
plan starts with pl, prolongued life, leading to cam philosophy
takes a lot to make my dad proud, maybe an Enrligh billionaire who owns islands and collects women, or a son who brought 'SUSP
I don't buy this, "You never stop worrying about your children," stuff. When they are little, when they are teenagers, yes. Twenties, even. But still sorting out your kids' messes when they're 27, 35, 42, 50? No. They are adults and have to deal with their own problems. But I'd still be concerned and try to help them out if I could.
So then you do buy it
@@kdohertygizbur Well, if I saw my child (no matter how old) really suffering of course I'd offer to help, just as I would offer to help a friend who was in trouble. But run my kids' lives for them? No.
Who's running his life, Jason Robards spent pretty much his life savings to save his kid's life and that SOB took off leaving his illegitimate son with the Grandparents
I'd say Jason Robards did the right thing or have you not watched this movie entirely
@@kdohertygizbur I was talking about what I would do, not what the Jason Robards character did in this movie, FFS!
@@millicentbystander5206 well excuse me, you didn't make that clear in your last post, but again, nowhere in that clip or movie ever shows a parent running someone's life , you said that , so that's why I posted back
Good evening
I abuse and confuse my brain
They like look they could’ve been father and son in real life due to them having the same hair color.
