Synopsis

Expect  things  to  be  different  at the Penrose dinner table. Ma insists
everyone perform yogic deep  breathing.  Mr.  Puddy,  a  boarder,  has
news of an edible beer bottle he's inventing. And little Lewie Penrose?
He's  been  communicating  with  horses. "Butch" Jenkins, whose brief
career as a child actor includes the earlier National  Velvet,  returns  to
the  equine  realm  to play Lewie in this tale of a racetrack bettor eager
to exploit the boy's gift and an older  Penrose  sibling  (Peter  Lawford)
who looks out for Lewie's interests.
