Mr Hobbs Takes a Vacation [Blu-ray]

Description

The apparently light-hearted comedy, Mr. Hobbs Takes a Vacation (1962), reveals an intriguing darker side in its tale of a family get-together gone awry. Little kids are monstrous, older kids suffer from self-esteem problems, grown-up kids have marital difficulties of distressingly diverse natures-and all are presided over by a decidedly grumpy (if great) James Stewart, waging the familial wars with a more idealistic helpmate (Maureen OHara) at his side. Directed and written by a pair of Hollywood veterans (Henry Koster and Nunnally Johnson, respectively), this quirky film features a standout score by the superb Henry Mancini, available on this Twilight Time release as an isolated track.LANGUAGE: English VIDEO: 1080p High Definition / 2.35:1 AUDIO: English 1.0 DTS-HD MA SUBTITLES: English SDH 1962 / Color 118 MINUTES NOT RATED REGION FREESpecial Features: Isolated Score Track / Movietone News / Original Theatrical TrailerLimited Edition of 3,000 UnitsEnjoy the extensive Julie Kirgo liner notes and film art packaged with the Blu-ray disc.
