Greetings, talking about films about fathers is a bit emotional for those of us who have lost ours, however, I remember my father so much every day that it is a pleasure for me to share with you a film that makes me appreciate what a good man he was my father. This is the reason for my participation in the CineTV Contest # 33, where the theme is: Favorite movie with a Prominent father. I invite @Yetsimar @Mayoly1 to participate
Big Fish // El gran pez (2003)

Fathers have always been portrayed in different ways in the cinema, there are all kinds of them, from the severe and strict, to the jokers and even immature, there are also many other types of personality, but there are always parents who are a bit like The father figure that we had in our lives, it may well be a grandfather or an uncle, as long as we have had someone who has been there, you can find appreciation for movies that resemble our life even a little.

The Big Fish movie is one of my favorites of those directed by Tim. Burton, this tells the story of Edward Bloom and his son Will, the plot of the film begins when the father is sick, then his son Will comes to his house, he had separated from his father because the man loved to tell fantasy stories of his past and was always the center of attention even at Will's wedding, this situation fed up Will who no longer saw his father as a man who liked them the stories, but he felt a bit of resentment because he didn't know that part of his father's life was real, because everything seemed like a surreal story, in short, Will felt that he didn't really know his father.

Edward's stories were incredible, he narrated with total naturalness surreal data from his childhood and also from his adulthood, for example when he met a giant and got a job in a circus that was directed by a werewolf, he also told how romantic and incredible in which he met his wife, the scenes were worthy of a movie worth the redundancy, because when he separated from his lover when he was recruited for war, he escaped thanks to some Asian Siamese and then he was left for dead, until finally He managed to return home, all these things instead of amazing his son Will, they drove him away.

For this reason, when Will returns to his parents' house and tries to put some things in order in the face of his father's illness, he seeks to corroborate some data from his father's past, but in that time he becomes sensitive when he sees his father. sick, he understands that his father is a good man and that his stories are part of his life, that adding unreal things to memories was his way of enjoying life, so when Edward is dying he asks his son to tell him the story of how he died, then Will begins to narrate as his father did, includes in the story all the characters from the old anecdotes and finally takes his father to the river where he turns into a big fish, his father is happy to hear that this is how his life ended and finally he died, at the funeral Will realizes that many of those characters that his father named in his stories were really his father's friends and with certain variations they were the same but yes n so much exaggeration.

I like this movie because my dad, who was an older man, always told me incredible stories of his childhood in the countryside, he told me that he started working when he was 4 years old, that he had a difficult childhood but full of adventures, for him it was normal tell things that for me were very fanciful but I did not doubt my father's word, once he told me that his sister saw a goblin, according to what he told me it was said that goblins liked to kidnap children and you should not give them the back, he also told me stories of his adult life that were extremely amazing to me, for example he told me how he saved his sister from a snake that had coiled up near his hammock, you know those kinds of stories that older people tell once and again until you get to a point where sometimes you feel a bit bored because you already know the stories by heart.

However, I was not like Will, when my late father told those stories I loved it, in fact sometimes I pretended that I did not remember anything so that he would tell me a specific story, I think that this exaggerated way of narrating the memories, it is a great virtue, not all people are good at telling stories and those of us who have had the good fortune to have a father who is like that, we understand that they are wonderful people who preserve their inner child and imagination very well.
