The Absent-Minded Professor / Son of Flubber

One of the most popular of Disney's live-action films was "The Absent-Minded Professor," a whimsical comedy with Fred MacMurray as an addled academian who invents a miraculous anti-gravity substance he calls "flubber" and uses it to propel his school's basketball team to victory and send his Model T on a flight around Washington.
