Mr. Hobbs Takes a Vacation
Long before Chevy Chase, Jimmy Stewart tries to save the family vacation, but how can he get any rest with a sulky preteen daughter and a host of noisy grandkids! Rated G.
Roger Hobbs (Jimmy Stewart) needs a vacation. He wants a quiet stay at the beach but his wife (Maureen O’Hara) wants a family reunion, so they do both! Kids, grandkids, noisy neighbors and a broken-down rental house threaten to get the best of Mr. Hobbs. In touching, comedic fashion Hobbs takes on each problem in an effort to reunify the family and save the vacation. Jimmy Stewart won the Best Actor award at the Berlin Film Festival for his performance.
