The Yellow Cab Man is a 1950 American comedy film directed by Jack Donohue and starring Red Skelton, Gloria DeHaven and Edward Arnold. A brief sequence of distorted visual effects in the film is the work of the photographer Weegee, who also makes a cameo appearance as a cab driver.
The inventor of unbreakable glass ("Elastiglass") tries to sell it to a taxicab company, hoping that they will make unbreakable windshields.
According to MGM, the film earned $1,951,000 in the US and Canada and $648,000 elsewhere, leading to a profit of $545,000.[1][2]
