Last Orders (2001)

Interesting format…a man has died and his three friends & son take a day trip together to scatter his ashes fulfilling his "last orders." His life and relation to the principals is told in flashback…little bits at a time. The weird thing is that the man they're remembering and honoring is genuinely unlikable...just a self-centered man, an inattentive (and downright neglectful to one child) father and unsupportive husband. This casts an unfortunate "good riddance" pall over the film.
