In May, I mentioned that Toledo Public Library had listed several recommended DVDs for mothers on their blog, and I tacked on some recommended audiobooks and CDs to their list in a News & Views Mother’s Day post. Well, Sunday is Father’s Day, and Toledo did a post on some great (and not so great) fathers in film. Here’s their list of recommended dad DVDs:
Good Dads
Father of the Bride
Houseboat
Mr. Mom
Parenthood
Pursuit of Happyness
To Kill A Mockingbird
Bad Dads
The Shining
Star Wars: A New Hope
Stepfather
Meet The Parents
So, I once again ask, what about CDs and audiobooks? Here are Midwest Tape’s Father’s Day recommendations:
CDs
Harry Chapin, Cat’s in the Cradle and Other Hits
Van Morrison, Astral Weeks
Bob Seger, Greatest Hits 2
Steve Miller Band, Let Your Hair Down
