Dear Frankie is a sad and slightly depressing movie.It was about a boy called Frankie who doesn't know his father and knew nothing about him except that he works on a submarine and is a marine biologist. The truth is that his fathers actually in hospital so his mother hires someone to pretend to be his father for a day. I probably wouldn't watch it twice though.
