Sinopse

Ainda não disponível em português — exibindo a versão em inglês.

Starbuck is a 2011 French-Canadian comedy film directed by Ken Scott and co-written by Scott and Martin Petit. It was produced by André Rouleau for Caramel Film and was shot in Montreal. It stars Patrick Huard, Antoine Bertrand and Julie Le Breton. The story follows an irresponsible middle-aged man who unexpectedly faces fatherhood on two fronts: his girlfriend is pregnant, and dozens of adult children born as a result of his youthful sperm donations have filed a lawsuit to have his identity revealed. Comedy partners Scott and Petit used the premise to explore fatherhood roles, which are the central theme of the film, with the tragicomic protagonist finding redemption through fatherhood. Critical reception to the film was mixed; some praised Huard's performance and the story which mixed comedy with heartfelt moments, while others felt that the film was overly sentimental. It was the top-grossing Canadian film of 2011, won two Genie Awards and numerous audience awards at film festivals, and appeared on best-film lists in Variety and The Globe and Mail. The film was remade in 2013 as Delivery Man and as Fonzy.
