What happens

Robbery Under Arms is a 1907 Australian silent western/drama film based on the 1888 novel by Rolf Boldrewood about two brothers and their relationship with the bushranger Captain Starlight. It was the first film version of the novel and the third Australian feature ever made. It is considered a lost film, and is not to be confused with another version of the novel that came out the same year. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
