IT'S THE OLD ARMY GAME - DVD

Details

• Release Year: 1926
• Genre: Comedy
• Plot: It’s the Old Army Game“ (1926) is an uproarious silent comedy in which the inimitable W.C. Fields finds it impossible to get some sleep. It was the fourth film in which Fields appeared, but the first over which he had some control, as it was adapted form his own stage play. Co-starring Louise Brooks (also in her fourth feature), and directed with verve by Edward Sutherland, „It’s the Old Army Game“ is a non-stop comedy of errors. Fields plays Elmer Prettywillie, a druggist kept awake by clamorous garbage collectors, a nosy woman seeking a 2-cent stamp, bogus land deals, and phony fortunes.
