VIEWER COMMENTS
Check out some of the thoughts from PBS Documentaries YouTube viewers:
“I couldn’t draw myself away from this film. Watched it with no interruptions. A loving, very thought-provoking portrait of an age-old struggle.”
- @briannamorgan8548
“As someone who grew up in a heavily practicing Catholic household, this totally resonated with me as I have similar convos with older family members. I respect the filmmaker working to not fully vilify her father.”
- @MerzillaSmash
“Katy Scoggin’s differences with her fundamentalist father remind me of the classic memoir by Edmund Gosse, FATHER AND SON (1907). It describes with humor and love the tension between the Victorian father’s anti-evolutionist, religious views and the son’s acceptance of scientific findings.”
- @VivienClair
A PBS North Carolina viewer posted:
“My husband and I just watched it and we can’t stop talking about it. We live about 30 minutes from Charlottesville. It has hit home for me in so many ways. Thanks for making it.”
