Plot edit

Harold plays a poor boy intent on wooing well-to-do Bebe. Her father would prefer she marry a much older but wealthy suitor whom Bebe considers to be a "neanderthal". When Bebe hears her father concocting a kidnapping plot with the rich suitor, she dresses her butler in her clothes and flees with Harold. Both couples arrive at the minister's house. The rich suitor does not realize he has actually "married" the butler until Harold and Bebe are wed.

Reception edit

Like many American films of the time, A Gasoline Wedding was subject to cuts by city and state film censorship boards. For example, the Chicago Board of Censors required a cut of two closeups of a coin.[2]

Survival status edit

Prints of the film are held in the UCLA Film and Television Archive and the BFI National Archive.[1]
