Here is the description from the back of the container:

"In this delightful fantasy comedy, the ageless, cigar-wielding George Burns returns to the screen as Jack Watson, a swinging 81-year-old bachelor who has everything but youth. And once more, he proves the old adage: Be careful what you wish for...it just might come true! Fate intervenes in the lives of Jack and his grandson, David (Charlie Schlatter), as their souls exchange bodies after a freak accident. Bit as David, the old Jack Watson charm and magic must work doubly hard to convert all of David’s classmates to bow ties, cigars, and martinis. And furthermore, in David’s body, Jack learns how people really feel about his old self. Jack is outraged by these revelations, and dismayed to find that his body, with David’s soul inside, is to be pulled off of the life-support. Jack realizes that he must act quickly to make amends for past mistakes, and return David what is rightfully his. Once again, fate intervenes in the touching climax of this uplifting and heavenly comedy."
