The Brass Bottle

A young architect named Horace Ventimore is desperate to impress the scholarly father of his betrothed. He purchases an antique brass bottle at an auction for her father, a professor of middle eastern antiquities. But, he discovers it contains more than he bargained for...

After purchasing the bottle, Horace removes the seal around the stopper on top of the bottle. A great cloud of smoke is released from the bottle. From this smoke emerges a genie who lives inside the bottle.

What ensues is the hijinks brought on by the genie in his efforts to repay Horace for releasing him from his brass prison.

Horace learns the true meaning of the saying, "Be careful what you wish for, because you just might get it."
