Lawyer Harry King and his wife Tacey have trouble retaining a nanny for their three young, rambunctious boys. When the latest in a string of servants quits, Tacey advertises for a replacement and hires Lynn Belvedere sight unseen, only to discover upon his arrival that Lynn is a dapper gentleman, one with many skills and achievements. Despite their misgivings, the Kings reluctantly agree to a trial period.

Sitting Pretty is a 1948 American comedy film which tells the story of a family who hires Lynn Belvedere, a man with a mysterious past, to babysit their children. It stars Robert Young, Maureen O'Hara, and Clifton Webb. The film was adapted by F. Hugh Herbert from Gwen Davenport's 1947 comic novel Belvedere. It was directed by Walter Lang.

The character of Belvedere proved so popular, Webb reprised his role in two more movies: Mr. Belvedere Goes to College (1949) and Mr. Belvedere Rings the Bell (1951). (Wikipedia)
