Yellow Cab Man, The
-- Comedy of errors about an accident-prone inventor (Red Skelton) whose secret formula for unbreakable glass makes him the target of a crooked lawyer (Edward Arnold) and a bogus psychologist (Walter Slezak), until his girlfriend (Gloria de Haven) and a veteran cab driver (James Gleason) come to the rescue. Under Jack Donohue's direction, Skelton mugs his way through the comic complications, including dream sequences using Weegee's distorted urban images, and a big chase finish that turns a home furnishings exhibition into a shambles. Some comic violence and psychological duress. (A-I) (br)
