If the best laid plans of mice and men aft gang agley, then what chance does Edgar Kennedy and his family have in this fine episode of his long-running RKO comedy series, THE COMMON MAN?
Back when Kennedy was working at the Hal Roach studio, comedies about cars were a staple, and this short recalls them, with more the brutal rough house that sound slapsticks delighted in. There's a nice tit-for-tat sequence with Dick Wessel, as Dot Farley calls him a brute and rips up his dressing be, while Wessel responds by demolishing the car.
