Cary Grant plays a stuffed shirt scientist who’s too preoccupied with his work to even notice his wife. He has been hired by a company to develop what is basically a youth potion. Fulton usually experiments on monkeys, but decides to take the formula himself. While he is out of the room, one of his monkeys mixes the chemicals on Fulton’s desk and then dumps his mixture into the water cooler. Fulton drinks his formula, followed by a glass of water, and almost instantly reverts to a youthful demeanor. It doesn’t take long for him to get a haircut, a new trend setting sport coat and a convertible.
Hollywood at Home: Monkey Business, Saturday at 9 p.m. on PBS 6.
