The Profile

Florian Zeller is a French novelist, playwright, screenwriter and film director. He wrote the play The Father and adapted it for film.

Co-winner of the Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay for The Father (with Christopher Hampton). The film adaptation of The Father stars Anthony Hopkins and Olivia Colman.

Two DeBaser reviews praise Florian Zeller's The Father for its disorienting, subjective depiction of dementia and strong performances. Reviewers connect the film to personal experiences with elderly relatives and note Ludovico Einaudi's effective score. Both reviewers rate the film highly.

Notable Quotes

❝ The overall effect is indeed disorienting for the viewer, to such an extent that it’s only at the end of the protagonist’s odyssey that one can find the thread of the entire storyline.
❝ Nevertheless, it’s still a good film on the subject, and the soundtrack by the always talented Ludovico Einaudi accompanies it beautifully.
