Description:
Hailed as one of Walt Disney's most hilarious comedies, THE ABSENT-MINDED PROFESSOR contains two essential elements for laughter -- Fred MacMurray and Flubber, his gravity-defying formula for flying rubber! You'll visit Medfield College and delight in the fun when Professor Brainard (Fred MacMurray) uses Flubber to put more bounce in the basketball team, fly a Model "T" Jalopy over Washington, D.C., and save Medfield College from financial ruin! Join a brilliant cast full of your favorite Disney stars: Ed Wynn as Medfield's bumbling Fire Chief, Keenan Wynn as the evil-minded Alonzo Hawk, and Nancy Olson as the college secretary who the Professor has absent-mindedly left at the altar ... three times! It's high-flying fun for the entire family!

The original, 1961 version of The Absent-Minded Professor is bound to be a hundred times funnier than the bland remake, Flubber. Fred MacMurray is charming as the eccentric college professor who discovers a gooey substance with sustainable energy. Everything about this movie clicks in a way Flubber didn't, particularly the effort by director Robert Stevenson (a Disney favorite who made Mary Poppins, That Darn Cat, Bedknobs and Broomsticks, and many other hits for the studio) to create comic tension between MacMurray's gentlemanly performance and the slapstick set pieces. The famous basketball scene (in which some of the players don't realize they have flubber on the soles of their shoes) is perfectly choreographed and exceptionally funny for kids. --Tom Keogh

I first saw "The Absentminded Professor" while at camp Matollionequay as little girl years ago and fell on the floor laughing.

The movie is simply infectious and has humor for all ages.
The story is chock-full and has many veins and sub-plots, which add to the fun. Basically, the story revolves around the main character, the "Absentminded ... Read More

I wish all of you would stop bellyaching about the color...some people prefer it and I am one of them. If you want this in the original black and white that is available at a much cheaper price...at this time the colorized edition is very expensive probably because it was moved into the disney vault because of complainers like you....just do your research and get what you want...thats all

Fred MacMurray, who later played the father in the 1960's series MY THREE SONS, allows his science lab to become nothing less than his self-imposed prison. He discovers a magical rubber-like substance called flubber, and is amazed at its potential.
He is so absent-minded that he misses his wedding--more than once. Finally, in exasperation, his fiancé throws the wedding flowers into the garbage can.
The flubber is put into good use. A basketball team is losing the game badly. During ... Read More

I ordered this movie because it is wonderful but more importantly it was the first movie that my husband and I saw when we first started dating. We saw it in a very old theater in the small town of Happy Camp, California. Loved the movie and my date
