Soldier Man (1926): Besetzung, Handlung & Streaming

Released in 1926, Soldier Man is a notable film directed by Harry Edwards.

What it’s about. 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. But what of the queen and her plans?

Who’s in it. Soldier Man stars Harry Langdon as The Soldier / King Strudel the 13th of Bomania, Natalie Kingston as The Soldier's Wife / The Queen of Bomania, Vernon Dent as The Prime Minister and Frank Whitson as General Von Snootzer, among others.
