| Description: | Cheesy recreation of tornado - wind blowing through houses, strange shots of man being blown along by strong wind. Effect is more comic than frightening. 01:13:37 two men in formal wear do somersaults through store, land in trash cans 01:13:49 man on bicycle washing dishes in machine driven by pedal power, tosses them to young boy who catches them all 01:14:15 young girls rush to table, sit down, another girl pulls a lever and a fully set table lowers from the ceiling 01:14:29 CU man buried in sidewalk with safe on top of him, crowd stumbles around wondering what to do, so they get a movie camera and film him 01:14:55 mustachioed man driving in open Model T tries to clean his windshield, then realizes there's no glass in it -- all while roaring down the road. Another man lands from nowhere on the car's roof, falls off, and chases after him. Gradually the still-moving car begins to fall apart. He stops the shell of a car, gets out and primps, posing proudly. 01:16:00 CU man with model of petard, with little doll hanging from the scaffold | |
