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!

I love the colorized edition

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

A Completely Self-Absorbed Professor

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 the intermission, he irons-on the flubber to the soles of the players' gym shoes. The game resumes, and the players are doing acrobatics. They make up a huge deficit and end up winning the game. One of the players even jumps through the basket with the ball that he's just been dribbling.

Very funny, and a great time for all! (B/W version)

I first saw "The Absent minded Professor" while at camp Matollionequay as little girl years ago and fell on the floor laughing. When I saw it was available on DVD, I quickly purchased it to have it for my family so my 5 ½ year old daughter, husband and I could enjoy it together. 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 Professor" himself, Dr. Brainard following the time around his wedding (the third time staged, as he "forgot" to go to the first two...I wonder what the outlook is for the third time?), and his unexpected discovery of a metastable compound he dubs, "flying rubber", or "Flubber".

Throughout the movie, we see several stories playing out - the missed wedding, the discovery of Flubber's properties, Dr. Brainard's attempt to win back his love, and the effort to keep Medfield College afloat financially. Add to that, the run-ins with the police, and the way Dr. Brainard helps Medfield College win an important basketball game, and you've got yourself a winning ticket.

Overall, this is film is great fun with really timeless humor. You can watch it again and again. There's no cursing or crude humor, so you don't have to be embarrassed to watch it with your kids or even your grandparents. I think this film would be ideal for kids today, from about age 4-15 or so, but it's good for adults, as well.

The Absent Minded Professor

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
