REMEMBERING THE ARTIST ROBERT DE NIRO, SR.
June 9, 2014  | By David Bianculli

HBO, 9:00 p.m. ET

 

This new HBO documentary isn’t premiering on Father’s Day, but it may as well be. It has that kind of proud “son honoring his dad” feel – with the difference being that the son arguing for more recognition for his father has tons of attention himself. Robert De Niro examines both the art and the life of his dad, a painter, and says, in essence, “Attention must be paid.” Tonight, it is.
