Excuse My Dust

Theres nothing more volatile than an idea in small-town 1895 America, especially for eager inventor Joe Belden. Hes making a horseless carriage that runs on an explosive cleaning fluid called gasoline a gas-o-mobile. Why, its enough to make John Q. Citizen flip his straw boater! Red Skelton portrays Joe, taking the wheel in a Technicolor musical comedy that has him wooing the daughter (Sally Forrest) of the man most threatened by Joes invention: the local livery master (William Demarest). But theres happiness all around at the end of the road, and getting there is great fun because the horseless carriage-race finale is a frantically funny affair[with] a lot of old Keystone contrivances (Bosley Crowther, The New York Times).
