The Deadly Knell - 1914 - 6/10
AKA - Dødsklokken
During the dinner party, military brass learn they are at war!
Next scene, the trenches!
A young officer is dispatched, carrying an important dossier to the front.
Except he is betrayed by a higher rank, imprisoned for his trouble.
Fortunately, pageboy cut Hubert (think Hardy Boys) is there to bail him out over and over.
I am guessing the conflict may be the Franco-Prussian War.
Denmark film ends abruptly, missing a reel or two.
