Our Gang spoofs the great war in this silent short where they really seem to be on a genuine battlefield, complete with trenches, make-shift tanks and seemingly real bombs. If the bombs don't get em', the smell of skunk will, and it's gas masks for everyone. Then, they end up at a movie studio, creating all sorts of havoc. That segment is much funnier than the opening with the battle sequence. The alleged filming of a silent melodrama is interrupted by the gang who think that the action is real. Basically a pleasing little short, rarely seen today in comparison with the Our Gang talkies. If you ever wondered what Farina's gender was, look no further. It is revealed here.
