Fathers' Day

FamilyComedy
1997, 1h 39min
One son...two fathers?  Comic superstars Robin Williams and Billy Crystal star as prospective dads in search of the same runaway boy that each thinks may be his child. From director Ivan Reitman comes the madcap comedy adventure Fathers' Day. Dale Putley (Williams) and Jack Lawrence (Crystal) never met, yet they both share something in common: ex-girlfriend Colette (Nastassja Kinski). To enlist their aid in tracking down her missing son, Colette tells each of her dumbfounded ex-lovers that he fathered the child to which she gave birth 16 years ago. Inadvertently trapped on the road together, these two strangers grow even stranger as they engage in the hilarious hijinks that can only happen when it's Fathers' Day.
