It's Not My Fault and I Don't Care Anyway is a 2017 Canadian comedy-drama film written and directed by Chris Craddock and starring Alan Thicke, Quinton Aaron, Leah Doz and Jesse Lipscombe.[1][2][3] The film is based on Craddock's one-man play, Public Speaking.[3]
Thicke stars as Patrick Spencer, a self-help guru and public speaker whose philosophy of extreme selfishness is encapsulated by the mantra "It's not my fault and I don't care anyway".[4] However, his attitude toward life is put to the test when his daughter Diana (Doz) is kidnapped and held for ransom by drug dealer Johnny Three Fingers (Jesse Lipscombe).[4]
The film marked the penultimate film role of Alan Thicke, who died December 13, 2016. He received a posthumous Canadian Screen Award nomination for Best Lead Actor in a TV Drama Program or Limited Series at the 6th Canadian Screen Awards.[5] Jesse Lipscombe won a Rosie Award for Best Performance by an Alberta Actor for his work in the film.[6]
The film premiered at the Whistler Film Festival in 2016 before being distributed primarily through online streaming.[4]
