Week-End with Father is a 1951 American comedy film directed by Douglas Sirk and starring Van Heflin, Patricia Neal, and Gigi Perreau.

Their children are leaving New York City for summer camp, so Brad Stubbs wishes his two daughters goodbye and Jean Bowen does likewise with her sons.

Neither being currently married, they meet again while walking their dogs, become acquainted, and quickly get engaged.

Brad attempts to break the news to a woman he has been seeing, Phyllis Reynolds, an actress, but she misunderstands.

In time, the children regret not accepting the new relationship and scheme to bring Brad and Jean back together, her boys even pretending to be lost in the woods so that Brad can be a hero and bring them home.
