Storyline

A self-proclaimed (somewhat justifiably) film legend bribes his son to document his death under the unquestioning assumption that it will be historically important. The Result; In Memory of My Father, a twisted celebration of a Hollywood family narcissistically dealing with an eventfully frustrating day, regardless of the subtly distracting centerpiece which they're forced to endure; Dad's corpse.

GOTTA SEE IT!! Christina ROCKS!

This was such a great movie. Very entertaining. Did not find myself bored for even a minute. Jeremy's performance was awesome and hilarious!! Christina was charismatic and beautiful as always!! Go see it. I guarantee that you will not be disappointed! I thought the entire cast did an excellent job. This film had the audience in an uproar. I took a couple of friends who aren't into "indies", but had nothing but positive things to say about this film. I loved the way the maker of this film handled the topic of death. Recommended for those who love dark comedies. If you haven't seen it yet, you are missing out!! MUCH LOVE TO CL SMOOTH- Kat
