MICHAEL DOUGLAS - MICHAEL DOUGLAS GETS CANDID ABOUT DAD'S SHORTCOMINGS

MICHAEL DOUGLAS has taken his movie legend father KIRK to task over his poor parenting skills in a new US TV special. The two Douglases sat down for a candid chat as part of upcoming show A FATHER... A SON... ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD, and when SPARTACUS star Kirk quizzed his son about his own paternal efforts, his son was brutally honest. In the TV special, which airs tomorrow (10MAR07), Kirk asks, "Was I a good father?" and, after a lengthy sharp intake of breath, Michael responds, "You have ultimately been a great father... but fatherhood would not have been one of the highest parts of your resume early on."
