“LOST AT THE FRONT”
A NEW COMEDY ‘ Lost at the Front,’* is an entirely new type of comedy with a most unusual locale, namely the Russian battlefront. As an Irish policeman and German saloon-keeper respectively, that great comedy-team Charlie Murray and George Sidney have roles that they invest with their own inimitable humour. The fast moving sequences are hilarious in the extreme, especially those featuring the world-famed Battalion of Death, the famous women’s army of Russia. How our two heroes are entangled among these Amazons of battle, but eventually escape unscathed, and their adventures in the Russian war zone, contribute to a series of riotous action. Incidentally, a wonderful “invention” figures prominently in the plot and beautiful Natalie Kingston, as a Russian sculptress adds an ornametal note. A First National picture that is said to be even better than “McFadden's Flats.”
