Bruce Willis stars as Paul Kersey in DEATH WISH, a Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Pictures film
There are fathers you admire, fathers who embarrass, fathers you could learn from, and fathers who leave you behind with decades of therapy. But the kind of father we hope you’ve had, and know you want to be – is a man who is a real softy. He may appear stiff and rugged from the outside, but inside he is actually a warm, gooey marshmallow if you consider the motive behind his occasional madness. We’re talking about the dad who threatens your worst bully – and will follow through with it. The dad who throws a grenade in your direction because if you’re going to die – he’s going to do it his way. A father who approaches life with the same tact, verve, and finesse as these 20 cool film father figures.
Happy Father’s Day!
