Chafed Elbows is a 1966 still image film directed by Robert Downey Sr.

A manic comic parody[1] underground film made for $12,000,[2] Chafed Elbows was a commercial success.[3] The film was premiered at The Gate Theater in New York City and ran for over one month alongside Scorpio Rising.

Downey photographed most of the movie with a still 35mm camera and had the film processed at Walgreens drugstore. These pictures were animated alongside a few live-action scenes and almost all the dialogue was dubbed to rather hilarious effect. One scene was shot in Anthology Film Archives’s upstairs theater back in the days when the building was still a defunct downtown courthouse.[4]

All 13 of the female roles were played by Elsie Downey, Robert Downey's wife,[5] and the lead male role by George Morgan.[6]
