    <body><![CDATA[I liked this book.  It was simple, nothing grand or hideous happening, just a relationship between a father and son.  Not quite your ordinary father though, as his son decides he really wants to drop out of high school and it's actually okay with the dad as long as he watches three movies a week with him and doesn't do drugs...which the kid does do occassionally.<br/><br/>Interesting premise.  Interesting the movies they watch and interesting the bond a father and son have in such awkward times.<br/>Of course I want to know why they didn't watch these:<br/>my dinner with andre<br/>mindwalk<br/>buffalo 66<br/>betty blue<br/>bagdad cafe<br/>naked<br/>whatever that movie was called that had the old lady and the young suicidal dude who drove a hearse.....<br/>stuff like that.<br/><br/>or these art documentaries:<br/>like monster road<br/>how to draw a bunny<br/><br/>]]></body>
