Tacey and Harry King are a suburban couple with three sons and a serious need of a babysitter. Tacey puts an ad in the paper for a live-in babysitter, and the ad is answered by Lynn Belvedere. But when she arrives, she turns out to be a man. And not just any man, but a most eccentric, outrageously forthright genius with seemingly a million careers and experiences behind him. Mr. Belvedere works miracles with the children and the house but the Kings have no idea just what he's doing with his evenings off. And when Harry has to go out of town on a business trip, a nosy parker starts a few ugly rumors. But everything comes out all right in the end thanks to Mr. Belvedere.

| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzThis is the effete curmudgeon character film role that endeared the 60 -year-old Clifton Webb to the public and made him a star. |
| User ReviewChrisanne SClever film about suburban life. Very funny, with the perfect cast! |
| User ReviewRomina AHilarious! Seeing Clifton Webb as the supercilious male nanny is a crack up. |
| User ReviewPrivate UWonder where they get the show "Mr. Belvadere?" It was a popular movie serial first. |
| User ReviewJohn BThe original Mr. Belvedere tale has much more charm than the obnoxious TV series that starred its title character. Clifton Webb is a wonderful eccentric in the film and his interactions with the kids are priceless. |
| User ReviewKevin HThese must be some of the best wisecracks of the 1940s. Take that, nascent suburbia. |
| User ReviewJames HClifton Webb's outstanding performance made him a household name at the time. Skillfully made, funny and very entertaining, good support, especially from Richard Haydn. Maureen O'Hara is great, Robert Young is bland. Well written. |
| User ReviewDarren PThere is no substitute for brain-power as Mr. Belvadere shows in this 1948 movie classic. It is amazing how naive we all were back in the 1940s ... suburban living was all the rage at the movies as personafied in this flick. I enjoyed the actors ... like Robert Young ... in this flick and actually enjoyed the movie as well. I do recommend this movie for my Facebook friends. |
| User ReviewAlessandra CSo hilarious and light! Ideal for brighten up an unpleasant evening. Very good actors |
| User ReviewTom MDrolly amusing hi-jinks with an irascible, effete English intellectual and busy-body (Clifton Webb) becoming nanny to a standard American family. Surprisingly witty, and I always remember it as I watched it the night before my Cambridge interview... |
