2. Which Disney film does NOT star Fred MacMurray?
Answer:
The Gnome-Mobile
Fred MacMurray certainly was one of Disney's favorite actors. He portrayed Professor Brainard who invented Flubber in "The Absent-Minded Professor." In "Follow Me, Boys!" he played a scoutmaster who adopted orphaned Kurt Russell. "The Happiest Millionaire" was a musical costarring Greer Garson and Lesley Anne Warren (her debut). "The Gnome-Mobile" was not a MacMurray movie; it starred Walter Brennan and the two kids from "Mary Poppins," Matthew Garber and Karen Dotrice, who entered a mystical world of gnomes.
Some of MacMurray's other Disney films include "Son of Flubber," "The Shaggy Dog," and "Bon Voyage!"
