Son of Flubber is the 1963 sequel to the Walt Disney children's movie comedy The Absent Minded Professor (1961), also starring Fred MacMurray as a scientist who has perfected a high-bouncing substance that can levitate an automobile and cause athletes to bounce into the sky. The film co-stars Nancy Olson and Keenan Wynn, and was directed by Robert Stevenson. The movie is mainly worthwhile to adults for a rare opportunity to see Ed Wynn work with his son Keenan, but this isn't Requiem for a Heavyweight or The Man in the Funny Suit, each of which had featured them both in penetrating dramatic roles.
