Storyline
Plot Summary |
The lame Jenny and the kids in her neighborhood love the Old Ben, an old man that loves to play with them and to do some magic every now and then. Jenny's aunt Agnes Gann is a cranky woman that raises Jenny without love and hates Ben. When two men wearing suits arrive in the building looking for Ben, Jenny overhears the conversation and warns Ben. He tells her that he is a fugitive and there is no other place to go but with the men. Written by Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil |

Did You Know?
Trivia | Jenny's bedroom wall is adorned with two photos of the Chicago White Sox players. They have been previously misidentified as Hall of Fame shortstop Luis Aparicio, a sports hero of author Charles Beaumont's home town. However, the players' uniforms date to the mid-1930s, not the late 1950s when Luis Aparicio played. The lower portrait is actually that of right-handed White Sox pitcher Monty Stratton. Stratton accidentally shot himself while hunting and lost his leg as a result. He battled back after his injury to pitch in the minor leagues despite having an artificial leg. Monty Stratton would have been an obvious inspiration for Jenny, who had also lost the use of one of her legs. A biopic about him starring James Stewart was released in 1949 and was titled The Stratton Story (1949). Both pictures are in fact Monty Stratton. See more » |
Goofs | Jenny's bedside clock is at 6:10 before the doctor is called. Then 6:45 when the doctor examines her, and then back to 6:10 as the doctor leaves her room. See more » |

Quotes |
[opening narration]
Narrator: It's been said that science fiction and fantasy are two different things: science fiction, the improbable made possible; fantasy, the impossible made probable. What would you have if you put these two different things together? Well, you'd have an old man named Ben who knows a lot of tricks most people don't know and a little girl named Jenny who loves him - and a journey into the heart of the Twilight Zone. See more » |
