My Childish Father (French: Mon gosse de père) is a 1953 French drama film directed by Léon Mathot and starring Maurice Teynac, Jean Tissier and Arlette Poirier.[1] It is based on the 1925 play of the same title by Léopold Marchand which had previously been made into a 1930 film My Childish Father.[2] The film's sets were designed by the art director Raymond Druart.
A party-minded Parisian architect attempts to try and settle down when he marries a younger wife. However he still finds it impossible to overcome his distaste for hard work and his love of fun. Not even the arrival of his hard-working illegitimate American son can change him/
