In Recognition of Jodie Foster's Charged Father, Let us Title Her Worst Movie Parents

Happy Friday! Since all of the “real” news is taken care of, let’s target the things we actually worry about — namely, that Jodie Promote’s estranged 89-year-old father Lucius was sentenced to 5 years in jail to take $130,000 in lower obligations for houses he never built. That’s naughty, Mr. Promote! Maintain prison now. In recognition of the sacred occasion, let’s think about Jodie Promote’s worst parents in film. I understand my pick. OK, Iris in Taxi Driver was certainly a 12-year-old prostitute, but her parents were awesome enough to transmit Travis Bickle instructions of thank you for saving her in the roads. They obtain a pass. My election would go to Jodie’s parents within the bizarre, noticeably Canadian 1976 “horror” film The Small Girl Who Lives Lower the Lane, where Jodie plays Rynn Jacobs, a mysterious girl who lives inside a secluded Colonial town without parental supervision. She informs incomers lies about her poet father’s location, however (spoiler!) he bought Rynn a concealed house to ensure that her abusive mother wouldn’t find her — after which he committed suicide after becoming crictally ill. WHAT. Couldn’t he have setup her track of some better care than… isolation? Because despite the fact that Rynn’s mother isn’t within the picture, a nearby child molester (Martin Sheen!) keeps bursting into her house to spend time together with her. He makes its way into via a basement hatch sometimes. I don’t understand either. Am I missing a much better option? Or perhaps is it Jodie’s lonely idyll for that win?
