The review of this Movie prepared by Estefan Ellison
Daniel Hillard (Williams), an actor in San Francisco, has just lost his job doing voices for a cartoon. Worse, his wife Miranda (Field) has divorced him and won custody of their children. Looking for work and to get more contact with his kids, Dan hits on the idea of disguising himself as an elderly Scottish lady and getting hired by his ex as a housekeeper to look after his kids. Thus is "Mrs. Euphegenia Doubtfire" born. Williams has a lot of fun with this older, 1993 "Tootsie" role, directed by Chris Columbus, although the plot calls for Miranda to be a little dumber and meaner than she ought to be. Brosnan has a small role as a snooty designer who is attracted to Miranda.
