And Thunder Road demonstrates a key plot flaw in being an extension of a short film by constructing a plot in which basically the idea is to see him continually humiliating himself without much being said in between. Cummings evidently gave all the plot weight to himself, and both his work as a director and his character are merely interested in enhancing him. That's kinda boring to be honest. This is not me saying that Thunder Road is a failed comedy in general terms, but it does become monotonous and when the humor falters, his director is incapable of working out anything to lift it up and on final counts with the exception of the opening scene - which is the entire short film - Thunder Road doesn't really provoke anything truly lasting.
