Masterpiece Mystery! host and 'Good Wife' actor, Alan Cumming ( @Alancumming ), discusses his emotional memoir ' Not My Father's Son .' The memoir explores Cumming's painful childhood, an exploration into his ancestry and his emotionally and physically abusive father.
"He would get me to do something that I couldn't do...and then of course I would fail at it," Cumming recounted, "And I would know he was going to hit me...but also I knew that he was intending me to fail before I did it, so it was mental torture as well."
