Watch Doughboys (1930) Official Trailer
The Laughing Gas of The Big Fight!
6.1 / 10 IMDb August 30, 1930 1h 19m
Elmer, rich society loafer, falls for Mary, but she'll have nothing to do with him until (mistakenly thinking that he's hiring a new chauffeur) he accidentally volunteers for the army. Luckily, Mary's signed up to entertain the troops. Unluckily, Elmer's sergeant likes Mary, too. And worst of all, they're all about to ship out for France.
