For a movie that is only six minutes long Bitter Old Man packs a whale of a punch with a powerful message. I couldn't stand the father in the story a foul mouthed racist who taunts his son about marrying an African American. In just this short film he disgusted me. I felt so sorry for the loving and decent son that was making one latch ditch effort to reach his father who did not deserve a loving son like this. SPOILER ALERT in the end the father's hateful angry heart gives out and he falls to the ktichen floor and finds himself face to face with Jesus, the shepherd, only its not exactly the kind of Jesus he expected. I just think that in real life this guy wouldn't go to Heaven.
