Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there. We have a rich history of movies about fathers, from King Vidor’s silent classic,The Crowd, to Judge Hardy (Lewis Stone) in the Andy Hardy series (keeping Mickey Rooney on the straight-and-narrow), to A River Runs Through It and Finding Nemo. So many others. Today I thought I’d share few favorite clips. Enjoy!

Spencer Tracy gets ready for his daughter’s wedding in Father of the Bride:

Laurence Fishburne starts his son on the road to responsibility in Boyz N the Hood:

Atticus Finch (Gregory Peck) teaches Scout an essential lesson in To Kill a Mockingbird:

So what film fathers would you like to mention? And Dad, enjoy your day.
