Spread Eagle

Commerce and heroism clash when a titan of American business orchestrates a U.S. invasion of Mexico. This long-lost 1927 Broadway melodrama by George S. Brooks and Walter Lister combines the crackling dialogue and riveting storytelling of The Front Page with the cynicism of Wag the Dog.
