The Wildcat (1921)

Directed by Ernst Lubitsch

Comedy, Drama, Romance · 1h 25m

A charismatic lieutenant newly assigned to a remote fort is captured by a group of mountain bandits, thus setting in motion a madcap farce that is Lubitsch at his most unrestrained. A wonderfully anarchic and playfully subversive satire of military life from one of the great comedy filmmakers.
