The producer, screenwriter and director Sean Anders, on whose account the comedy “We are the Millers”, was noted in 2012 when creating another comedy. It would seem that a win-win script and a good cast should have led him into the box office, but the critics underestimated the picture, which cannot be said about the audience. The film “Papa dosvidos” is an easy and laid-back comedy in the company of which you can spend a good evening.
About the plot ...
Massachusetts high school student Donny Berger falls in love with a new beautiful and young teacher and, as it turned out, his feelings are mutual. Moreover, Mary herself does not adhere to strict rules and, without blinking an eye, seduces a teenager. At one point, their relationship is in the public domain. A teacher for seducing a minor for 30 years goes to jail. Stories, it would seem, are the end, but the film “Papa dosvidos” (actors below) is only just beginning. After all, in prison it turns out that Mary is pregnant, and Donnie will become a father. An amazing story flies around the world, and the guy becomes a celebrity, whose life became the basis of the series.
For the next eighteen years, he brings up his son as best he can, and after his coming of age they quarrel and break up. A young man named after a Star Wars character changes his name and biography, wanting to completely forget the past.
Years later, he becomes perhaps the most successful financier of the country, and Donnie spends his days in a strip club in constant drinking bouts. Seeing his son on TV, he decides to establish a relationship with him, and at the same time his financial situation. However, the time is not the most suitable - the son is preparing for the wedding, and with the advent of an irresponsible father, everything goes wrong. This is a small background for all those who are going to see the film “Papa dosvidos”. Actors coped with their task perfectly, impeccably accustomed to the role. Well, now about them in more detail.
Adam Sandler
A popular American comedian and actor was born in New York on September 9, 1966 in the family of an elementary school teacher and electrical engineer. He discovered his vocation to make people laugh at school and after this hobby did not give up, constantly participating in various productions, shows and projects. The audience knows him by his many roles in comedies, including Odnoklassniki, Gemini, etc. The film Papa dosvidos includes his work not only as an actor, but also as a producer. It is not difficult to guess that he got the role of a colorful and peculiar father. Donnie, who gained fame as a teenager and reveling in her youth, lost his fervor and money over the years. Now he is an ordinary loser, spending time with a glass of alcohol in a second-rate bar. Therefore, he enthusiastically clutches at the second chance given by fate to be afloat. In the film "Papa dosvidos" actors fully enjoyed cooperation with one of the popular comedic actors.
Susan Sarandon
The American actress and Academy Award laureate starred in the film in a supporting role. Incidentally, this is not the first time she has chosen the role of a teacher who has seduced her student. It is noteworthy that the actress gained great popularity and recognition after 40 years. In the story, a wise teacher who has served her term will reunite at the end of the film with the love of her whole life.
Andy Semberg
The screen son of Adam Sandler is only 12 years younger than him, which in principle almost matches the plot, because in the film he is still a teenager, a school student. E. Semberg is a comedian and actor, as well as the winner of the prestigious Golden Globe Award. In the role of an matured son, he looks very harmonious and, surprisingly, to some extent, he even looks like a screen father. In the story, having matured, he took a new name Todd Peterson and came up with a different biography, according to which his parents were tragically killed in the explosion. Todd, after coming of age, broke off his relationship with his father and stopped communicating with his mother. Now he is a successful financier and is preparing for the wedding. His plans and worldview collapse, like his personal life, with the return of his father. However, perhaps all this is only a temporary phenomenon, and everything that happens is for the better.
Leighton Mister
She is known as a model, singer and actress, mainly for her role in the popular youth series Gossip Girl. The role of a capricious, spoiled and arrogant girl entrenched in her quite firmly. However, in real life, Leighton had a hard time. Her parents were members of a drug gang. At the time when they were arrested, the mother of the future actress was already pregnant. Before she was released, the baby daughter lived with her grandmother. At the age of 11 she began her career as a fashion model.
In the film, Leighton plays the role of the bride of the protagonist. The unapproachable beauty when the “prodigal" father appeared, refused to accept him. But in the end she was not clean at hand and also a traitor.
We recommend the comedy “Papa dosvidos” to anyone who wants to pass the time watching a pleasant and laid-back film. The actors and their game are very convincing, the work of the crew is also good. All this combined to create an interesting and easy comedy.
