Mr. Hobbs Takes A Vacation

Mr. Hobbs' (James Stewart) dream vacation is radically altered into a nightmarish family reunion, courtesy of a sentimental notion from Mrs. Hobbs (Maureen O'Hara). Now the couple, their four children, two son-in-laws and three grandchildren are trapped under one dilapidated roof with tempers threatening to blow as high as their accommodation's unstable plumbing.

How We Determine Our Grades

After watching a movie with your children or students, we encourage parents and teachers to look for education opportunities to teach with movies. Here are a few discussion topics that can help with lesson plans or teaching in the home.

Talk about the movie with your family…

One of the arguments between a married daughter and her spouse is over the proper type of discipline to use on their out of control son. How do the philosophies they site epitomize the child psychology of their day? Why do you think fads exist in methods of rearing families? How do you feel about Mr. Hobbs’ snide comment that, “In all the history of the world, there has never been a child that was brought up right!”
