unlabelledView post →Parenthood (movie) is woefully underappreciated.
unlabelledView post →My first thought when my daughter told me she was pregnant was “I can’t be a grandma, I went to Woodstock”. Parenthood, the movie, looms large in our family legend.
unlabelledView post →I’m watching the Ron Howard movie “Parenthood” for the first time in decades. What a great movie, wonderful cast, and stories that ring true. It’s a family movie about love, teen masturbation, car bl*wjobs, and raising a neurodivergent kid.
unlabelledView post →Parenthood, he delivered one of the all time classic lines in film history.
unlabelledView post →Best line in the film, "Parenthood" from Keanu Reeves, said in pain and anger, "You know, Mrs. B. You have to have a license to have a dog, but anyone can be a parent." So glad you escaped!!!
unlabelledView post →I loved him in the movie Parenthood!! That Todd!
unlabelledView post →My wife and I have a whole ‘couple-code’ full of movie quotes. This one, from Parenthood, used to be a common one when the kids were here (but always said in a loving, caring way). 🤣
unlabelledView post →My wife and I decided to rewatch the movie "Parenthood" now that we're parents, and two things jumped out: 1) it's set in St. Louis but that ain't St. Louis (has any movie gotten St. Louis right?), and 2) Dianne Wiest runs away with the film. She's so great in it.

unlabelledView post →"You know, Mrs. Buckman, you need a license to buy a dog, or drive a car. Hell, you need a license to catch a fish! But they'll let any butt-reaming asshole be a father." From the film 'Parenthood' in 1989.
unlabelledView post →A2: MY understanding has changed drastically. I've seen disappointingly little change in much of the "general public", though. One huge change was the ADA. One year before the ADA, the movie Parenthood started with a kid getting kicked out of public school because they needed special ed. #autchat
unlabelledView post →Along these lines, the movie Parenthood, which came out a year before the 1990 ADA, starts with a kid getting kicked out of a public school because he needed special education.

unlabelledView post →Rewatching the film Parenthood (1989) and I identify with Steve Martin's character SO MUCH (though I don't have kids). The family dynamics in the movie are so similar to my own. Also, it's wild that I am older than they are in the film, but when I saw it as a child I thought they are all so aged.
unlabelledView post →It was a major plot in the Ron Howard movie 'Parenthood' that a kid had anxiety and that was nearly 40 years ago (jfc I'm old), and also clear the father (Steve Martin) had anxiety as well. It's been known to be so common a major studio released a film about it in the late 1980s.

unlabelledView post →@benkuchera.bsky.social Just had to add to your post about Keanu. His small part, but perfect performance, in Parenthood absolutely broke my heart. I’ll watch a Keanu movie any time ❤️
unlabelledView post →Haha! 1 time I took my daughter to Plan Parenthood and the TV in the waiting room was showing that movie. We found "Inconceivable!" to be hilarious in that setting
unlabelledView post →I agree. But that's what makes the lying about birth control case tricky. If a woman did get pregnant or risk pregnancy after sabotaging here birth control (this was a plot device in the old film Parenthood), that would seem to violate consent (while recognizing that the harm is different).
unlabelledView post →In the film, "Parenthood", Keanu Reeves' character said, "You know you have to have a license to have a dog, but anyone can have a kid." Parenthood is hard. For lazy people, it's too much work.

unlabelledView post →The thing you insist on calling "super intelligence" can't accurately create a family tree of Parenthood, the Steve Martin movie. Even if you coach it and remind it to disregard the TV show of the same name, it insists that Dianne Wiest is playing her own mother.
unlabelledView post →To paraphrase Keanu Reeves character in the movie Parenthood, 'you have to have a license to have a dog in this country, but any asshole can become a parent'

unlabelledView post →This was Ron Howard's first film of the 90's. His films from the 80's are a variety of film, most with some comedy part: Night Shift, Splash, Cocoon, Gung Ho, Willow, Parenthood. All the great films he's directed over the years, his Oscar win is only for A Beautiful Mind. #impromptutheater

unlabelledView post →Parenthood is an excellent movie with a great ensemble.
unlabelledView post →I always think of the movie Parenthood when Rick Moranis shows up in his wife's classroom and starts serenading her whenever someone refers to this song.
unlabelledView post →I watched him in Parenthood not too long ago and it reminded me just how brilliant he was. A great feel good movie that he etches out a perfect performance in.
unlabelledView post →Not sure about Lost Boys (Although that’s a great movie!) But definitely the beginning of Parenthood. Only tweaked a little after listening to The Politics Bar.

I asked some different platforms to give me a family tree of the characters in the 1989 Steve Martin movie, Parenthood. (I was using it for a class and wanted to give the students a relationship cheat sheet.)
unlabelledView post →watched a movie - #Parenthood Long time since I saw this 1989 film, about siblings dealing with parenting, in the cinema. The story is great, as is the ensemble cast that includes Steve Martin, Mary Steenburgen, Martha Plimpton, Rick Moranis, Dianne Wiest, Keanu Reeves and more. Worth watching.

unlabelledView post →I can see the resemblance. Nice pic. I remember the movie, Parenthood. I have wondered if River was offered a role, or was it only Joaquin, known as Leaf back then? I remember him as a kid from Gladiator mainly. I know that Joaquin did, Walk the Line. Never watched it. I guess we'll never know.
