The Father the first film directed by Florian Zeller, has a good reputation. According to the census made on the IMDb website, this film has received 133 nominations, 26 of which have resulted in awards. Among the awards received, we particularly note the Oscar for Best Actor in a Leading Role for Anthony Hopkins and Best Adaptation for the director and his co-writer Christopher Hampton. These two Oscars are the exact reflection of the two BAFTA Awards obtained two weeks earlier. This film's track record among the festivals and other award ceremonies of the 7th art is extensive. It is all the more impressive that it celebrates the first film direction of a man of the theater. And, as there is never smoke without fire, it is perhaps given to us to see through The father the birth of a filmmaker with a promising future.
