About Speedy
A hapless young man living in New York City rallies to save his girlfriend's grandfather's horse-drawn trolley, the last in the city, from being put out of business by a railroad company.
Directed by Ted Wilde, Speedy leans on a strong ensemble — Harold Lloyd, Ann Christy, Bert Woodruff — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1928.
