Frederick Bolton has to solve two problems. First, his boss has instructed him to come up with a reasonable campaign to promote a new product, a stomach pill named "Aspercel" - by tomorrow. The second problem is Fred's daugther, Helen. She is absolutely fond of horses, takes riding classes and has already had decent success in some competitions. Her biggest wish is to own a horse herself, a dream her father cannot afford at all. Now Fred tries to solve both problems at once by simply combining them: A horse named "Aspercel", ridden by his daugther should bring the name of the pill into the papers and make Helen happy, too. But there's still one more obstacle: Helen and Aspercel of course have to win a few prices to make this idea work...

Straightforward and pretty predictable, but 'The Horse in the Gray Flannel Suit' is still a film I enjoyed watching. Dean Jones is always fun to watch, that's no different here as he portrays Fred. Diane Baker is also up to scratch as Suzie. Ellen Janov (Helen) and Kurt Russell (Ronnie) make for suitable child actors, while Fred Clark plays the role of Tom well. It's the cast that's most likeable about this film. Plot-wise it's good, the pacing is solid as is the score. Perhaps the run time could've been slightly shorter, but that's not really a serious criticism of mine to be honest. It's all worth a view.
