Dear Brigitte (1965)


Twentieth Century-Fox

My rating: 2 stars out of 4
IMDb
(Fox Movie Channel)

Jimmy Stewart is the eccentric professor type at a California College. He lives on a houseboat with his wacky family. His eight-year-old son turns out to be a mathematics wizard. At first Stewart refuses to let him be exploited, but when it turns out he can predict horse races he changes his mind. He justifies it by donating the money to his "foundation", but the child is exploited just the same. Little Erasmus just wants to go to France and meet his idol Brigitte Bardot, and who can blame him?
