Kid Speed (1924)

 Second viewing; previously viewed on February 22, 2020 (and not reviewed then).

A beautiful woman's father promises her hand to the man who wins an automobile race. Two rivals covet that prize: a thin man and a fat one. Prior to the race, the thin man loses control of his car, provoking a series of disasters. He then has a fight with his rival. The race occupies the last part of the movie, with the fat contestant trying to exclude his rival by dishonest means.

Routine slapstick which is not hard to watch and has some well filmed car sequences.

Rating: 37
