Synopsis of Family Affair: Heroes are Born
Befriending the nephew of pro football star Ken Granger (Larry Pennell), Jody (Johnnie Whitaker) soon develops an acute case of hero worship. Before long, Jody is imitating everything Granger says and does, and is even dressing in the same fashion. When the athlete is brought up on charges of betting on his own, Jody fiercely defends his idol--only to be emotionally devastated when the charges turn out to be true! Appearing as Granger's nephew Bobby is Leif Garrett, who grew up to be a pop-culture idol in his own right. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
