You Drive Me Crazy

You Drive Me Crazy

1945 · 17 min · ★ 9.0 · Comedy

Edgar’s day goes from bad to catastrophic after he lends his brother-in-law his car — mistake number one. When the car breaks down, Edgar borrows his neighbor’s car to fetch it — mistake number two — and wrecks it almost immediately. Panicked, he rushes to "Miracle Sam - The Used Car Man" to buy a replacement (racking up a whole new set of mistakes) and drives off without insurance. Meanwhile, Brother has somehow gotten Edgar’s original car running... just in time for the inevitable two-car smash-up. Classic Edgar Kennedy chaos, for anyone who knows what’s coming.
