2. 電影《窈窕奶爸》(Mrs Doubtfire)
Wooder adds that he prescribed the viewing of the Robin Williams film Mrs Doubtfire for one father.
The film sees Williams play Daniel Hillard, a dad who loses custody of his children following a divorce. In his desperation to see them, he ends up dressing up as a woman, complete with a false nose and twin sets, and putting on a Scottish accent to win the job as their nanny.
"That film really helped one of my clients because it expressed the level of frustration that he was feeling - that he was prepared to do anything at all to spend time with his kids," adds Wooder. Using a disguise to bypass custody arrangements is obviously inadvisable in the real world but the film offers a lesson about closeness.
"Films are a remarkable tool for helping people learn, it's about recognising a feeling or an atmosphere and taking some time to just sit, watch and consider it."
Williams's soft-spoken nanny is one of a number of film characters that explore the relationship between fathers and their children.
伍德還說(shuō)他向每一位父親推薦觀看羅賓?威廉姆斯(Robin Williams)出演的《窈窕奶爸》(Mrs Doubtfire)這部電影。
在這部影片中,威廉姆斯飾演丹尼爾?希拉德,這是一位離婚后失去孩子監(jiān)護(hù)權(quán)的父親。他不顧一切的希望見(jiàn)到他們,最終他帶著一副假鼻子,身著女士上衣,操著一口蘇格蘭口音,裝扮成女人而成為他們的保姆。
伍德還說(shuō)道:“這部電影的確曾幫助過(guò)我的一位顧客,因?yàn)槠渲械莱鏊媾R的挫折,而且為了能與孩子在一起他愿意付出任何代價(jià)。”
“電影是幫助人們學(xué)習(xí)的絕佳工具,這是在識(shí)別一種感覺(jué)或氛圍,花一些時(shí)間靜靜坐下來(lái)欣賞一部電影并有所思考?!?/p>
威廉姆斯飾演的那位輕聲細(xì)語(yǔ)的保姆是眾多展現(xiàn)父親與孩子關(guān)系的角色之一。
