Free Film Screening - OakCliffUU - March 6th: "The Other F Word"

2012-02-09T02:57:00.000-06:00

Our co-sponsors for this film include

The Other F Word

"The Other F Word is a raucous, eye-opening, sad and unexpectedly wise look at veteran punk rockers as they adapt to the challenges of fatherhood. To be sure, watching foul- mouthed, colorfully inked musicians attempt to fit themselves into Ward Cleaver's smoking jacket provides for some consistently hilarious situational comedy, but the film's deeper delving into a whole generation of artists clumsily making amends for their own absentee parents could strike a resonant note with anyone (punk or not) who's stumbled headfirst into family life."

- Andrew Barker, Variety

The First Tuesday of each month at 7:00pm the Unitarian Universalist Church of Oak Cliff hosts free screenings of socially relevant films followed by a (usually intense) discussion of actions we can take.
