Dads embark on journeys of discovery and healing ; A boy grows into a man in 'Father Figures'
For [Kevin Sweeney] and his six brothers and sisters, the road to being a \"grown-up\" was tough. For the young ones like Sweeney, who barely remembered their father, there was a need to learn about the person their father was while determining who they were as individuals. In an era when the roles of men and women, mothers and fathers, were set in black and white, Sweeney decided that he needed a father -- or several -- to learn how to be a man. Father Figures pays homage to a trio of fathers of Sweeney's childhood friends who -- unbeknownst to them -- were the primary stand-ins for Sweeney's dad. There are some disturbing moments. When the teenage Sweeney begins drinking too much, his normally subdued mother blurts out in hysterics that he should know of his father's drinking problem. The revelation, which was unexpected to Sweeney, is one of the jolts that shows Sweeney's road was more difficult than he usually lets on. Eventually, he is steered to the correct path by one of his three surrogate fathers.
