Mr. Gerber and Sister


Does anyone else think Mr. Gerber might be Sister's father? Ever since I first watched this movie (many moons ago when I was child) I thought he was her dad. What do you all think?

reply

Hmmm, interesting....never thought of that. I just assumed that we were to assume, everyone had a different daddy.

reply

Yes, I believe it. I wished they would have delved into that a little more.

reply

Wow, thats a new one for me. It might be possible.

reply


Such a great point. I didn't think of it whilst watching but it would certainly make sense.


reply

I've never had that idea...what parts hint at that? I'm watching the DVD now.

reply

The way Effie said that Mr. Gerber stopped by her house to Stix could be a hint, because most people would probably be terrified if the mob shows up at their door regardless if they did something bad or not. She said it as if it was nothing.

Effie: Oh Mr. Gerber stopped by yesterday.
