Mr. Hobbs macht Ferien: Directed by Henry Koster. With James Stewart, Maureen O’Hara, Fabian, Lauri Peters. Mr. Hobbs wants to spend a quiet holiday at the beach, but his wife has invited all their family to stay with them.

“Jimmy Stewart plays a St. Louis bank executive who goes on vacation with his wife(Maureen Ou0026#39;Hara) and children on a beach front house in California, where his planned romantic getaway with his wife does not go as planned, since the children get involved with their own problems(his lovelorn teenage daughter and young son who only wants to watch television, especially westerns!) On top of that, the plumbing does not work properly at times, especially a water pump with a mind of its own.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAmusing comedy is quite warm and funny, with a charming performance by Jimmy Stewart as the harried father, whose attempts at sailing and bird-watching also meet with mixed results, but film remains a nostalgic comedy of a (sadly) bygone era, but one that can still be enjoyed on DVD whenever the viewer likes.”
