What happens
Do Your Duty is a 1928 American silent comedy film directed by William Beaudine. The film was originally planned to be a part-talkie but this was quickly abandoned when Warner Bros. Pictures acquired control of First National in September 1928. The film was unceremoniously released as a silent. Charlie Murray was dropped from the First National roster and three films that had been already planned by First National as starring vehicles for Charlie Murray before the acquisition were cancelled. This was a lost film. until March 8, 2023 when a fragment running 1 minute and 30 seconds was rediscovered. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
