Clifton Webb starts the movie giving money to scouts and married and his wife wants to adopt a kid, so already this film is less fun. They should have made this film about Belvedere hating kids and being forced to run the scouts, but instead he volunteers and the kids are a little energetic that's it.
There's a decent subplot about a lonely kid from a crap family - played by that kid who was in Gentemen Prefer Blondes. That works.
But they don't lean into the fun of Clifton Webb doing it. Anyone a little gruff could've played the role.
