Russell Crowe tugs at heartstrings in ‘Fathers and Daughters’
CEBU, Philippines - “Fathers and Daughters,” a Voltage Pictures presentation, is an American-Italian emotional drama film directed by Gabriele Muccino (“Pursuit of Happiness”).
Starring Russell Crowe and Amanda Seyfried, it is based on a 2012 script written by Brad Desch. The story follows a father and daughter living 25 years apart in New York City. Crowe portrays a famous novelist and widower struggling with mental illness as he tries to raise his five-year-old daughter.
Seyfried will portray the now-grown daughter in present-day Manhattan as she battles the aftermath of her troubled childhood. Aaron Paul plays Seyfried’s love interest, and the role should come naturally given that he played a comparable part on HBO’s “Big Love.”
“Fathers And Daughters” is currently showing in Philippine cinemas. (FREEMAN)
