$10 Silent Film DOUBLE FEATURE Night – Saturday Afternoon AND Soldier Man

Saturday Afternoon – Henpecked husband Harry is coerced by a good time pal to go on a clandestine double date. Of course, no good will come of this, as they encounter streetwalkers, bumpy roads, and a couple of toughs previously jilted by their dates.
Soldier Man – After the armistice, one U.S. soldier remains unaccounted for: he’s wandering the fields of Bomania, hungry, thinking the war is still on. (He was in a German prison camp, escaping while his captors celebrated the Great War’s end.) Turns out, he’s the spitting image of Bomania’s King Strudel. The prime minister wants Strudel to sign a peace treaty ending civil war with a cousin. Bomania’s General Von Snootzer wants the war to continue, so he contrives to derail the treaty. Strudel is a drunk, his queen hates him. Into the mix stumbles our dough boy. If he can pass for the king, maybe the treaty can continue
