A theatrically distributed advertising cartoon by the pioneering Fleischer Studios, the film deploys the Fleischers' typically rough humor and sexual innuendo to extol the erotic charms of the automobile. Spoofing melodramatic conventions, the film begins with a Peeping Tom, and ends, with the help of Oldsmobile, with a marriage that quickly becomes a boxing match. It also includes a bouncy-ball sing-along that takes viewers “auto-mo-bubbling.”
