Mrs. Doubtfire

Daniel Hillard is no ordinary father, so when he learns that his ex-wife needs a housekeeper, he applies for the job. With the perfect wig, a little makeup and a dress for all occasions, he becomes Mrs. Doubtfire, a devoted British nanny who is hired on the spot. Free to be the "woman" he never knew that he could be, the disguised Daniel creates a whole new life with his entire family.

Live-action film with animation sequence by Chuck Jones. A five-minute cartoon was produced, including footage that did not appear in the movie. The extended cartoon sequence was included in the DVD release of the film.

Jones said in an interview ("A Conversation with Legendary Animator Chuck Jones," a bonus on the DVD release) that when director Chris Columbus asked for a Sylvester and Tweety spoof, he was reluctant to spoof his own studio's creations. He told Columbus that he might as well ask Disney to spoof Mickey Mouse. But eventually, Jones decided to give it a go.

This film grossed $219.2 million in the United States and another $204 million in other countries worldwide.
