Featured review
(1919) A Sammy in Siberia
SILENT COMEDY
From the running time of 10 minutes, there is still enough innovative sight gags to keep me entertained that has a small Boshevik army clashing with a dad and his daughter, Olga (Bebe Daniels). To which they manage to take ever the small cabin and at the same time try try to be fresh with Olga who she manages to escape and run away, while her dad is injured on the shoulder. Meanwhile, Sammy Strong (Harold Lloyd) who is supposed to be part of his American army unit, marched on the wrong cue, and conveniently marches straight toward the cabin where the Bolshevik's had taken over. But as soon as he walks toward there Olga's dog, Fidovich chased him up the tree, who manages to take out the small Boshevik army led by (Harry Pollard). There's some great innovative ways of Sammy knocking them out without firing a single gunshot. As well as when they begin chasing him, and he manages to find a way to push them down the snow hill.

- TriviaThe U.S. Army had thousands of troops in Russia at the time of this film for several reasons - as part of an Allied force to fight against the Reds in the civil war, to protect military supplies headed for the eastern front, to help operate the Tran-Siberian Railway and to help evacuate the Czechoslovakian Army and transfer them to the Western Front. President Woodrow Wilson began sending troops there in 1918, but they were all withdrawn by 1920.
