Watch: I Am Your Father 2015 123movies, Full Movie Online – David Prowse, the actor who played Darth Vader at the first Star Wars Trilogy, never revealed his face during the films.

Thirty years later, a young filmmaker discovers why the producers took that decision, and is determined to pay Dave a deserved tribute, almost impossible..
Plot: David Prowse is an eighty years old actor, who has lived behind Darth Vader’s mask during three decades. A group of Star Wars fans find out why he has been apparently forgotten by Lucasfilm during thirty years, and decide to give him back the glory he never had. This is their last opportunity.

Successful documentary
I’m amazed by the low ratings and unkind reviews this documentary gets. It seems a lot of people didn’t get from this documentary what they wanted, which is indeed different from what I felt the makers intended.It’s not only about ‘the actor that played Darth Vader’ or ‘the man behind the mask’, it is about a man who has worked six years on a job and did it extremely well, but who, till this very day, was not given the chance to finish his hard work to his own satisfaction, dictated by misunderstandings and prejudice with his employer. It is about how everybody sees this man deserves rehabilitation and recognition but does not receive it from his former employer.
Every good documentary has a story line: it has a starting point, often posing some sort of goal, a middle part where it is attempted to reach that goal, often with the introduction of a new set of problems that need to be solved first, and finally a conclusion, where the goal is achieved or where the gathered information raises new questions.
The dissatisfaction that you might feel about this particular documentary didn’t come from the makers, it is just part of the story they tell. I might not be happy with the conclusion, but I am very happy I got to hear this story.
It’s okay
There’s some intriguing info and interviews in here if you don’t know much about David Prowse.However… The filmmaker inserts himself as a main character, which is kind of annoying, especially since he obtained some GREAT interviews from a variety of people close to the Star Wars franchise…including Prowse himself. Those interviews could’ve carried it just fine had that been the agenda.
Another small inconvenience (on the Netflix version anyway), there were no built-in subtitles for the two brief scenes that are completely in Spanish.
If you can get past those minor annoyances, it is otherwise decent.
