Son Photoshops Dad into Iconic Movies ScenesWhen you turn the hero of your life into the heroes of cinematic history, the result is both incredible and heartwarming. For years, Matt Bonito has been Photoshopping his dad, Dom Bonito, into scenes from famous films and paintings. Matt has placed him in all kinds of dramatic situations from hunting treasure with Indiana Jones and flying on a bike on E.T., to replacing Rose in the embrace of Jack Dawson in Titanic. His dad has also become the subject in famous paintings such as Edvard Munch’s Scream and Banksy’s Love is in the Bin. In all of them, he wears the same knitted sweater and newsboy cap, adding to the jarring hilarity of it all.The idea was inspired by eccentric advent calendars Matt saw on the internet. Knowing his dad is a bit of a local celebrity himself, he started pasting his dad’s photos into all kinds of hilarious situations and called the project Dadvent. What began as a private collection quickly grew in popularity that it now has its own social media. Matt is currently in his 8th year of the project, and hopefully will continue for many many more.Images: the_dadvent - via My Modern Met​
