Criticalpast Film Lead
Permalink   

An extremely kind silent film enthusiast has given me what looks like a very promising lead on the unidentified film here.

He suggests it might be from Carry on Sergeant, not the British one but a 1928 Canadian film which was produced by no less than Bruce Bairnsfather. The generously-proportioned soldier might be an American entertainer named Jimmy Savo.

Very interesting details here. Googling reveals a great deal of stuff about it. Enquiries continuing. Feel free to join in. Maybe we have a friend in Canada who can help.
