" Lies My Father Told Me" has been through many reincarnations since its original publication, as a radio play and a Golden Globe winning film.
The original short story was picked up by producer Harry Gulkin.
Gulkin candidly told the" Montreal Gazette I really did n't know what I was doing, but then nobody knew I did n't know what I was doing".
The film has become celebrated for its message that relationships can deeply transcend generations through the connection between its two main characters.

Lightstone states," it is essentially a family story with the most primal set of conflicts you can come upon.
It's why Oedipus and Hamlet still resonate.
It's a universal theme".
