Today’s entry comes from the psychological drama film, The Father.
From the clip provided by Lionsgate comes a sad slap that will break your heart as the lead character has slowly lost his mind due to dementia. We call this the “Past a Certain Age” Slap.
The Father is a film starring Sir Anthony Hopkins. The film revolves around an elderly man who believes he is living in his flat but with his disease, the faces of the people he knows changes. As time goes on, he doesn’t realize what has changed and becomes confused about what is going on.
This is a repulsive slap because who slaps a man in his 80s and has little concept of where he is at. My grandma has this disease and I would never slap her. Homeboy needed to get jacked up. The slaps were just enough to give a sting and cause distress to the old man.
