ADVERTISING EXECUTIVE OLIVER WENDELL WATSON'S WORLD COLLAPSES WHEN HIS WIFE LEAVES HOME TO RETURN TO COLLEGE AND HIS THREE CHILDREN BLAME HIM FOR THE SPLIT. Review: Good Cheesy Movie - This movie is predictable, but I bought it because I love Patrick Duffy. I don't understand why so many of the "liberated" women under this item, in the comment section, have their panties in a bunch. There are PLENTY of women in this world who would love a man like Patrick Duffy's character. He is a devoted father, husband, and son. Maybe I'm crazy but his wife (the woman so many are defending) came across as selfish. She decided to pursue a college degree at a school that was miles away from her family. She decided to leave her husband and kids for another man. I'm struggling to figure out why so many women here are defending this woman while dismissing Patrick Duffy's character. Some of you white privileged feminists just don't know how good you have it in this world. You are connected to a race of men who have promoted you and ridiculed/oppressed all others using racism and white supremacy (something you will never renounce because you find it beneficial to you). You are connected to a race of men who have managed to lie, cheat, and steal their way to MOST of the world's wealth. You see yourselves in movies, on television, in magazines, on billboards more than any other group. You have the lowest poverty rate. You have the highest health insured rate. Lowest infant mortality rate. Highest quality of life. Lowest unemployment rate. Highest earning rate for ALL women. Yet you sit around and declare yourselves "oppressed." Yeah...okay...try switching places with a black woman or any minority woman for that matter. I bet you would be BEGGING for a man like Patrick Duffy's character within the first 24 hours. Review: Wonderful Patrick Duffy wished it was longer! - Being a fan of Patrick Duffy this movie sure locked that feeling in good. Danielle Steele wrote a wonderful story that took a mans view of a marriage gone sour. Which is rare to see. As when this came out in the early 90's things have certainly changed a lot. Attitudes about marriage and women are so different now. But, the romance was captured in this film. Patrick Duffy gave the character "Oliver" a personality that we can feel. He was touching and made you feel for him. You just wanted to reach out to "Oliver" and tell him all will be ok. Only a very good actor can do that and his talent shines. Featured was a young Ben Affleck who surprisingly looks the same and still acts they same! Lynda Carter however acted too desperate in this movie and you sort of wish they cast someone else. She is pretty and had the star look for the role but, her acting was disappointing. Overall it was Patrick Duffy who certainly carried the story and I just only wish it lasted a little longer and focused more on his new relationship. Thank you Mr. Duffy for a wonderful performance in this movie you really made this a most enjoyable family film.

Danielle Steel's Daddy
I have been looking for this dvd ever since I caught part of it on TV. I have loved reading her books and now find that some of them have been made into movies. I have enjoyed all the titles that I have been able to find and buy. Keep up the great work. I have enjoyed the actors in this dvd since I have seen most of them in present day other show/movies. It is interesting to see how they have gone from unknowns to knows. I have also enjoyed seeing some of the more seasoned actors and actresses that have not shown up into may things of late. Keep up the good work!

Daddy is near and dear to my heart
Danielle Steele did it again. Daddy is well worth watching. What a wonderful story about a father trying to bring up his kids when his wife walks out on him and then finds love again with Linda Carter, who is quite beautiful. Ben Affleck, though young here, did a great job. This movie touches my heart everytime I watch it. I love Patrick Duffy, excellent job, of course, he is from Dallas, another fabulous review coming up. I highly recommend Daddy. It is wonderful from beginning to end. Watch it with your family, you won't want to stop watching it.

Nice story
I love most of Danielle Steel, not all. This is not quite like the book, according to Wiki, but it would have had to be a 2 parter like some of her others. Enough to make me feel good, though. Would have liked to see the wife get what was coming to her! No problem being used. Good seller. Well packed & arrived on time.
