The Storyline

The story revolves around Daniel Hillard, a recently divorced and struggling actor who is devastated over losing the custody of his children. He thinks of a brilliant plan in order to stay in touch with his kids. With the help of his brother, Hillard disguises himself as Euphegenia Doubtfire, a Scottish nanny. The elaborate disguise (pantyhose, wig etc) convinces his children and former wife that he is a nanny. He is eventually hired by his ex-wife to look after the kids and the home. Many risky and hilarious scenarios in the film threaten to disclose Hillard’s secret. Eventually the nanny helps Hillard realize his mistakes and he figures out how to improve himself as a father.
