Bryce Dallas Howard Talks With Me About Her New Documentary DADS

I had the great pleasure of being able to be part of a round-table video chat with Bryce Dallas Howard to talk about her new documentary DADS. I got to screen the documentary with my wife a few weeks ago. We really enjoyed the way dads were portrayed. There is a mix of celebrities and six fantastic fathers from across the world in this film. 

While watching this film I thought about the work Bryce and her team did to promote fatherhood. What she is doing is what we dad bloggers are looking to do. We both want to show how important dads are and how necessary we are for a child’s successful future. We each got to ask Bryce one question. My question was if she looked at her father in a different way after making this documentary. Here is what she said.
