Synopsis: A Poetry professor has a low esteem of Science; he suffers a severe blow when his son reveals himself as a genius of Mathematics.
Appraisal: It's hard to know whether this film is simply dated or whether it was antiquated even for the day when it was released. The subplot about the young boy's infatuation with the French starlet is particularly annoying. Anyway, aside from that and other unsuccessful attempts at being funny, the plot has some points to make about the interrelationship (and interdependence) of the artistically inclined and the more down-to-Earth people who value knowledge and the quantification of the Universe.
