New Movie “We Bought a Zoo” Takes a Look at Fatherhood

Its in an unexpected package, and maybe less obvious than other movies such as Courageous, but 20th Century Fox‘s new film “We Bought a Zoo” tackles the difficulty and joy of fatherhood.

The film tells the story of a widowed father Benjamin Mee (Matt Damon) and his life raising his two children and overcoming the loss of his wife.  When Benjamin decides the family needs a fresh start they move to the most unlikely of places, a Zoo.  With the assistance of an eclectic staff, many adventures and misadventures the family grows and rediscovers themselves.

The film contains a treasure of “fatherhood moments” that are sure to entertain and inspire fathers to step into the lives of their children like never before and we’re not the only ones who have noticed.

Over the next month, until the film’s December 23 release, the National Fatherhood Initiative will be sharing fatherhood advice inspired by the film’s powerful themes.  If you would like to gain these insights sign up for their weekly Dad E-mail™ which will bring you fathering tips and perspectives inspired by We Bought a Zoo.  Sign up for the Dad E-mail™ today>>
