Featured review
Calling all Claudette and Fred fans: they've made another comedy together! Family Honeymoon is definitely one of the cute ones, so if you liked The Egg and I, you'll love it.
It's a twist from the previous year's plot. Instead of Claudette throwing her life away to join Fred on his farm and raise chickens, Fred throws his life away to join her! Claudette is a widow with three children, and Fred is a lifelong bachelor. When he marries her, he's determined to have a wonderful and easy marriage. After all, she got along raising the kids without him, didn't she? He won't really have to do anything fatherly, will he?
For those of you who are laughing already, you'll love this silly comedy. On their honeymoon, they take the kids along, to make it a real family bonding experience. Hattie McDaniel, Claudette's housekeeper from Since You Went Away, knows it's a bad idea, but she doesn't know exactly how disastrous it'll prove to be. Entrusting a bachelor with three small kids while visiting the Grand Canyon opens the door to all sorts of disasters - all of them hilarious! Watch this one when you're in the mood to put your kids in the playroom and lock the door. Or if you want to be glad you don't have any kids.
