Speed

Short, dispensable romcom with action elements in car racing. Some bad green screen usage common to the time. Stewart is in fine form in an early appearance and his first leading role, but really only recommended for completionists. Much worse ways to spend an hour, though.

James Stewart's 1st leading role and he's a engineer hating race car driver in love with Wendy Barrie. MGM gives him modest production values, but a solid supporting cast consisting of Una Merkel, Ralph Morgan, Ted Healy and a fairly large part for lesser know actor Weldon Heyburn as Stewart's rival. Little more then a programmer to flood the market, but a nice one thanks to the charms of Stewart & Barrie combined.
