Robert De Niro started doing comedies when he starred in Meet the Fockers. Since then, he has made the same movie but with different casts.
The hottest comic in America, Sebastian Maniscalco joins forces with legendary Italian-American and two-time Oscar® winner, Robert De Niro (Best Actor, Raging Bull, 1980), in the new comedy ABOUT MY FATHER. The film centers around Sebastian (Maniscalco) who is encouraged by his fiancée (Leslie Bibb) to bring his immigrant, hairdresser father, Salvo (De Niro), to a weekend get-together with her super-rich and exceedingly eccentric family (Kim Cattrall, Anders Holm, Brett Dier, David Rasche). The weekend develops into what can only be described as a culture clash, leaving Sebastian and Salvo to discover that the great thing about family is everything about family.
Even though About My Father has the same feel as Dirty Grandpa and The War with Grandpa, it still looks funny AF.
Not everything has to be Oscar-worthy with the actor, and he makes it works. So I will be there to see when it comes out on May 26th. Will you be there too?
