Man of steel
What a great depiction of fatherhood is shown in "Man of Steel", the new Superman movie! I saw it last night, and much of the story turns around how Superman related to his Krypton father, and also his earthly father. Both are great examples, and teach and sacrifice their lives for him. One even keeps guiding him after his death through technology (you have to see it, no more details) . Superman struggles with his identity, and becomes the best of both great examples. (I am not even going into a theological truth that Superman is presented as an excellent Christ-figure by the movie, which was planned by the director.) But this movie is worth seeing for its depiction of fatherhood. The action sequences and scifi were good too!
