Courtship of eddies father download


















Tom tells them as neighbors they are getting too close too fast. The Brights acknowledge this is a common occurrence with them as they are starved for friends. Tom tells them they should try being better friends with each other. Tom Corbett is instructed to let visiting Soviet editor Irena Kosnova study his magazine's publishing methods. The Russian newspaper woman is attractive but severely dressed.

She insists on spouting communist propaganda at every opportunity. Tom invites Irena home for dinner, and he and Eddie are surprised when she arrives modishly sporting hot pants. She is most taken with Eddie, and as the evening progresses, warms to Tom with the help of a little too much to drink. The next morning, Irena appears at Tom's office hung over, but once again all business and dressed as he first saw her. She is on her way to another city, and though she continues to preach official party line, she admits meeting Tom has changed some of her thinking, and she departs with an obvious fondness for him.

Eddie is subdued about going off to summer camp for two weeks, which causes Norman Tinker to think he will be unhappy there. Norman worries aloud to Tom, so they call Eddie at Camp Natchanoomi but are only able to talk to the camp counselor, Bernie, which increases Norman's fears. To calm Norman and reassure himself, Tom takes Norman with him to see Eddie at camp.

Eddie is obviously happy, but Norman refuses to accept this. He agonizes all weekend. When it is time to leave, Tom asks Eddie to talk to him. Eddie does and is able to convince Norman he is truly enjoying himself and not just pretending. Tom Corbett is attracted to a gamin-like but clumsy artist named Katie O'Hara after she applies for work at Tomorrow magazine. Tom invites her home for dinner and Eddie, too, is taken with her.

Katie fails to keep a beach date with Eddie and Tom, and the pair are sorely disappointed. Later, Tom confronts Katie and learns that she is afraid of any relationship because she might get hurt. Tom counsels her to take a job in Italy to gain confidence in herself, and when she returns, perhaps they can be good friends. Eddie is chosen to play the prince in his school play but gets "cold feet" after he learns the part demands he kiss his co-star, Elsie, on the lips. Kids at school call him "lover lips," and he quits the play only to have Tom insist he live up to his commitment.

Eddie attempts to get a cold by standing dripping wet in the wind, but Mrs. Livingston intercedes. In the end, Eddie goes on with the show and manages, between sneezes, to manfully perform the big kiss scene. Tom is attracted to Dr. Liz Park, who treats Eddie while his regular pediatrician is on vacation. She obviously likes Tom, too, but tells him she plans to spend three years in Switzerland studying to be a pediatric surgeon.

Norman urges Tom on in the affair though Tom is hesitant because it means eventually asking Liz to give up her plans for Switzerland. One night after a date, Liz tells Tom she has been accepted for study in Switzerland but tears up her acceptance letter as a commitment to Tom.

It looks like Tom has found a mate until they look in on a sleeping Eddie, who is suddenly running a fever. Liz treats Eddie and in doing so she and Tom realize she must fulfill her dream to become a surgeon, thus ending the romance.

After Tom and Eddie start karate lessons as a "father and son" project, Eddie is picked on at school by Harold, who wants to assert his position as the school's top bully. Tom advises Eddie to reason with Harold, but instead of talking, Harold gives Eddie a black eye.

Eddie attempts to learn enough karate quickly to handle the situation but his instructor tells Tom that much time is needed to make Eddie proficient. Taking another tack, Tom goes to see Harold's father, Kelly, with Eddie along. Kelly is unsympathetic, but the crisis is suddenly resolved when Eddie clobbers Harold after Harold calls Tom a "bum.

Eddie starts learning to play a saxophone which disturbs a testy, retired British officer, Major Pritchett, who lives above the Corbett apartment. When Pritchett complains, Tom attempts to compromise saying Eddie will play when it is least disturbing to him. Pritchett, however, demands Eddie stop altogether and, after Tom refuses, he retaliates by stomping around in heavy boots playing bagpipes at 2 a. Pritchett calls a meeting of all the neighbors and invites Tom to attend. Tom argues that Eddie has a right to practice the saxophone as part of his education and as adults they should be able to work out an arrangement that is satisfactory to all.

Though Pritchett objects, the other neighbors agree with Tom. But as it turns out, Tom's victory is merely theoretical because Eddie has decided he doesn't like saxophone playing and quits.

Tom and Norman are astounded to learn that Gus, their favorite waiter at the Walnut Room, is a most successful investor. With visions of castles in Spain and homes in Malibu, Norman approaches Gus for tips on investing. Gus persuades Norman and Tom to invest in an oil well he thinks is a good risk.

Despite Gus' confidence, Norman and Tom are sure they'll lose their shirts. The pair can think of almost nothing else except whether their oil well will be a gusher. Finally, Gus gets word that the well, while not a gusher, will return some profit.

He also offers Tom and Norman a chance to invest in another one. Tom declines saying he isn't cut out to be an investor because of the worry and concern it causes him. Norman follows his lead. They find out later that the second well is a gusher. Author Peter Stowe, an old college chum of Tom's, is commissioned by Tom to write an article for Tomorrow magazine.

Stowe obviously relishes his iconoclastic image and chides Tom about being an "establishment" man. Stowe has a half-finished novel Tom wrote in college and persuades Tom to try finishing it as an acknowledgement of his true calling, writing. At first excited, Tom writes in his spare hours. However, he finds he has little or no time left for Eddie, which dampens his ardor considerably. Eddie is enthused about the project and even does some writing on his own.

By the time Stowe finishes his assignment for the magazine, Tom realizes he doesn't have the temperament to be a writer himself. He tells his author friend he can't stand the loneliness of writing, which is why he quit in college. He is quite happy being a magazine editor and feels he can make his best contribution there.

Tom goes away on a business trip and leaves Norman and Norman's insurance actuary friend, Rodney River, Jr. Rodney is so filled with statistics on accidents and their causes, he finds peril in almost everything surrounding him. He is so nervous he even takes precautions against sleepwalking before he goes to bed.

On the second afternoon of their baby-sitting duties, Norman and Rodney miss Eddie. They find him trapped in the apartment house elevator and then get trapped along with him.

Rodney has claustrophobia, and Norman and Eddie must constantly reassure him to keep him from cracking. The trio is saved from the elevator's clutch when Tom returns early from his trip and activates the conveyance. Rodney, though shaken by the experience, has learned to conquer his constant fear and vows to try living unafraid. Later, it is suspected that the painting is worth thousands, and a second art dealer approaches Tom about authenticating his new gift and then selling it to a wealthy collector.

Tom feels the money from any sale should go to Tina, but she rejects this idea saying the painting, no matter what it's worth, now belongs to Tom. Tom can't proceed in good conscience with the authentication. With Norman and Eddie holding curiosity seekers and art experts at bay outside the apartment, Tom reaches an agreement with Tina and refuses to let the art experts in.

He tells them he isn't interested in knowing the painting's monetary value because to him it is priceless and he intends to keep it.

Tom and Eddie get excited over the idea of buying a house and start searching for one that's suitable. They encounter Irma Handily, a real estate saleswoman, while looking at a most ordinary house described in advertising as "almost a mansion. Norman persuades Tom to look for something old and gracious that can be purchased cheaply and then renovated.

Irma comes through with a "white elephant" she's been unable to unload and Tom takes Eddie, Norman and Tina to see it. It looks like the perfect house until Tom and Eddie have a serious talk just before Tom is to close the deal with Irma. Moving would mean not seeing Mrs.

Livingston and changing friends and schools for Eddie. Both Eddie and Tom decide they'd rather stay in the nice apartment they already have. Watch your purchase on Movies Anywhere supported devices.
