Like father, unlike son! George Segal, Susan Saint James and two-time Oscar winner, Denzel Washington star in this "zany" (Screen International) and wickedly funny comedy that strikes a brilliant "balance between broad humor and genuinely poignant moments" (Variety)! When straight-laced executive Walter Whitney (Segal) discovers he has a long-lost black son (Washington), he attempts to adopt him into his uptight family - only to watch his tidy world go hopelessly and hilariously awry.
