To get my Neocon father in law to go to this movie, he called me "Fucking stupid" (drunk) at Easter when i was waring my Kerry Button. He is not a asshole either he is really nice, he is just brainwashed. Any ideas on how to get him there?

3. I got my husband to go see |

Gone With the Wind when we were going together. I told him it was a Civil War movie..he probably wouldn't have gone if I'd said it was a love story. Be creative in what you tell him it's about.

4. Offer to buy the tickets and dinner and tell him that you would like him |
|
to go to help you give balance to what the film presents. Playing to his "vanity" or "know all" will help you if you let him believe that you need his insight to help you shift through fact and fiction. (Manipulation is the key) (IHMO)

She is all for getting him to go, like i said he is really nice. All I can do is ask i guess. I will get my Mother in law to go regardless :)

6. Tell him you'd like to take him so he can tell you where it's wrong |
