Our limited series with co-hosts Abe Epperson and David Bell digs deep into the internet meme of the “dad movie.” We can all probably name a dad movie, but can we isolate the tropes that really make this a bona fide film genre? Let’s find out!

Breaker Morant is an Australian dad movie you may not know about, but it is deeply inside this category of film. Bryan Brown and Edward Woodward as soldier dads for the British Empire on the South African frontier, killing rebels because they were ordered to, but then the authorities betray them, because of course they do, and they face the consequences. They also get to be dad to a younger soldier who gets court-martialed alongside them, be all stoic and calm the boy down. Their lawyer is also a great dad type, who defies authority and gets away with it because he follows the legal rules, causing all the snooty British officers to curl their moustaches in disgust. Highly recommended.

Also, aren't the Mad Max movies dad films, in a way? Thunderdome definitely is.

I'd say the original trilogy sure us. It was never discussed after Mad Max 2 but his face always carried the haunt of his son's death when he interacted with kids.
