THE COCKEYED WORLD (1929) 217 What Price Glory? started an epidemic of soldierpictures, many of them revolving about a feud between two members of the AEF over a girl. The original feud between Captain Flagg and Sergeant Quirt was continued by Victor McLaglen and Edmund Lowe in a talkie of 1929, The Cockeyed World. The bone— if one may be so ungallant— of contention this time was Lily Damita. BELOW Jeanette MacDonald was teamed with a French musical-comedy star who had caught the movie public's fancy with his first picture, The Innocents of Pan's— Maurice Chevalier. Their combined talents, plus Ernst Lubitsch's sly direction, made The Love Parade an instant success.
