A psychologist and his wife's oldest daughter Meg goes on a school trip to South America.
"She is going there to study the continent of the future, not to become a beachcomber."-Robert Dean
"South America is so far away and she is such a nice girl"-Mary Dean
Meg leaves the tour after enjoying Sao Paolo, Brasil. She sends a telegram to her folks that she will be staying an additional six weeks studying under the famous Eduardo Burroso.
"Well if she gets to stay down there on her own, I don't think it's fair I have to be in do early Saturday night."-Betsy
"Bessy would you please go downstairs and warm up the milk before you reassure your father into a nervous breakdown."-Mary Dean
There is so much comedy in this sweet film. When the family finds out that Meg is staying in Brasil, the father books tickets for the rest of the family to join her. When they arrive they are met by Meg and Senor Burroso...and given the news that Meg had been honored with an art scholarship for a year in Brasil, a very personal Burroso scholarship.
Meg is staying in The Women's Residence Club, but Burroso sets her family up in one of his new high rise apartments. Her dad is a little concerned as Eduardo is his age.
An unexpected plane stop on their sightseeing tour ends up in the most hilarious encounter with an American Air Force soldier from Georgia.
Jane Wyman is gorgeous in this film and plays a wonderful mom. The actor playing the concerned father is smart and hits just the right notes. And the sights of South America! This is a gorgeous postcard to all of the sights in Brasil, including Rio during carnival. Then there is an excursion to Lima, Peru for the bull fights...musical performances and flamenco!
"As soon as we get back to the hotel I'm going to write Ernest Hemingway quite a letter, quite a letter!"-Robert Dean.
"Are you implying that I am being overprotective about them? Emotional? Surely you know me better than that?"-Robert Dean.
"You can't go around spanking everyone just because they don't want to get married."-Betsy.
This was fun and funny...during quarantine it was also a lovely trip to South America!

Mostly dreary vacation movie filmed on Hollywood back lots standing in for various South American locales, with lots of travel footage sandwiched in between the studio stuff. Why the studio didn't have the cast go on location is beyond me. The year was 1959 and the film is in color, and it is all too apparent when the actors are performing on sound stages. Clifton Webb and Jane Wyman take daughters Carol Lynley and Jill St. John on vacation only to have the girls fall in love with total strangers (Gary Crosby as a military man for Lynley and a Latin actor playing a playboy for St. John). Webb is funny as always while Wyman is strictly window dressing. Paul Henreid does a nice turn as the playboy's dad. Badly dated.
This one won't be for everyone but I enjoyed the gentle, quiet side of it as well as its comedy. There are parts that move slowly and parts that may not make sense to some in a modern audience. I watched them as a slice of life, and for the most part I liked them.
My husband and I have seen this twice. He is not usually an older movie fan, but watches it with me. He laughed often all the way through. Perhaps if you are a parent you see it as being a bit more realistic in how a parent would respond to their children growing up. I thought it was very good, but I knew it was good for us because of the father's, Clifton Webb's, reactions. Jane Wyman was the peacekeeping mother, which I think is still more common than we admit. And to the person who complained they did not recognize Jill St. John because she did not have red hair, please. She was on her third movie, I believe, and many actors and actress change looks, hair color included and sometimes a minor part of the change, for the screen. The story line was a fairly natural progression of a young woman's family meeting her intended's family, but in a foreign country and with some mix ups, and the differences both sides may have in a bit of a culture clash. The addition of the younger daughter, played by Carol Lynley, was done very well, and the awareness of the parents in confirming they had two adult daughters reminded me especially of my father as his daughters grew up. My father had three, along with three sons, and was protective also, but brought us up to think for ourselves, sometimes to his chagrin. The scenery was beautiful and I think the producers really tried to give you the feeling that you were seeing some of Brazil at that time period. The sandwiches at the bullfight, and the American reaction to what they thought they wanted to see, is a good example, along with more obvious landmark views. Enjoy!
This is a fun little film featuring Clifton Webb and Jane Wyman as parents who chase their 2 daughters through South America as the young women find love. Webb is wonderful as always and his drunk scene is a classic. Wyman isn't given much to do but calm her exasperated spouse but Carol Lynley is impressive as the younger daughter (although her choice of chubby Gary Crosby as lover is a bit hard to understand). Jill St John is awfully wet as the older daughter - you could never believe she was an accomplished sculptor. But as her lover Nico Minardos is very funny and very sexy - as a "Brazilian beatnik". Paul Henreid is suave as his father.
There are some funny scenes - the strip search is good - and dialogue and there is great music, including a fabulous flamenco dance sequence with Jose Greco. But why oh why didn't they take the actors on location? The production is a high budget cinemascope movie so why not spend that little bit more? Instead we get lots of second unit travelogue type footage of Sao Paulo, Rio, Lima and Trinidad and the actors standing in front of obvious rear projections. This almost ruins the film.
