Reviews:


An amusing film regarding Professor Brainard, a character I’ve always associated with Robin Williams having seen the 1997 remake first back when I was younger.

Fred MacMurray plays the aforementioned in this, the original. He is pleasing here, giving a more than satisfying performance – even if it is pretty similar to the one he gives in ‘The Shaggy Dog’ back in 1959. Elsewhere, Keenan Wynn plays Alonzo Hawk – he is perfect for that role. Nancy Olson (Betsy) and Tommy Kirk (Biff) are also recognisable Disney faces, though it’s MacMurray and Wynn who are the standouts by quite some distance.

The special effects haven’t aged well at all but I can forgive that. However, the editing is very choppy when the Flubber is in use. I get why, of course, but I feel they could’ve sharpened the edits up a tad.

The main part that I’ll remember from this is the humour, which is nicely crafted. There’s a lot of set pieces with the Flubber and basically all of them give laughs to some degree. If it wasn’t for the fun, I’d be rating this lower – especially after the somewhat out of place ending.

I prefer the remake with Williams, though that one leaves a similar impression – with the previously mentioned actor elevating that film up tremendously. This, for a special effect-filled production from 1961, is solid.

Substance X, we dub thee – Flubber!

The Absent-Minded Professor is directed by Robert Stevenson and adapted to screenplay by Bill Walsh from a story by Samuel W. Taylor. It stars Fred MacMurray, Nancy Olsen, Keenan Wynn, Tommy Kirk, Leon Ames and Elliott Reid. Music is by George Bruns and cinematography by Edward Colman.

Out of Disney, we get the kind of wacky family friendly comedy that serves a purpose on a miserable real life day. MacMurray’s professor has invented flying – gravity defying – rubber, which he christens Flubber. It can make you bounce up to incredible heights, make the prof’s car fly and naturally it draws the attention of evil business man Alonzo Hawk (Wynn). A bunch of nutty scenarios ensue (the basketball match is a pure joy) and the prof has to win back the girl he keeps forgetting to marry (a radiant Olson). It’s a creative piece of writing and it saw Disney take note for continued success in live action pictures. 7/10

Review By: John Chard
An old-fashioned, unsophisticated, excellent family comedy.
My wife and I saw this with our four young sons when it was first released, and we thought it was great. We have seen it several times since, and it is always entertaining. Unlike some critics, I thought Fred MacMurray was perfect in the title role, and the supporting cast was great. The humor may seem a bit unsophisticated and hokey by present day standards, but in my eyes it makes the movie even more enjoyable. Show this film to your unprejudiced younger children and grandchildren and watch them delight in it.

More Bounce To The Ounce
The Absentminded Professor was the second film that Fred MacMurray in his second career rebirth with Walt Disney as the midwife. He scored an enormous success in The Shaggy Dog and Disney films together with his My Three Sons TV series established MacMurray as the quintessential family father figure which would endure for the rest of his life.

I do remember seeing this in the theater back as a youngster and back then the younger ones in the crowd were looking at Tommy Kirk who was at the height of his Disney popularity.

Nevertheless MacMurray gives a delightful performance as science professor Ned Brainerd who’s accidentally invented a variation on rubber which has a great deal more bounce to it.

He’s so wrapped up in his experiment that he’s even forgetting his wedding day to Nancy Olson, AGAIN. She’s about had it with him and ready to fall for the wolfish English professor Elliott Reid.

MacMurray has his own troubles. Other than helping his college win a basketball game with a team that they are way overmatched against, he’s not quite decided what use this stuff he calls flubber is good for. But wealthy Keenan Wynn sure wants to get his hands on it.

Funniest sequence in the film is Keenan Wynn after MacMurray and Olson trick him into wearing flubberized shoes is seeing bounce slowly into the stratosphere before a quick thinking Tommy Kirk devises a way to counteract his flubberized dad.

The AbsentMinded Professor was so popular with audiences that Disney did another version with almost the entire same cast in Son of Flubber.

That one was almost as funny, but this still has a lot of laughs even after almost fifty years.
