About Otto the Soldier
Zimmerman is a German tailor. Two important men of the city visit Zim and induce him to sign as a volunteer, spurring him on by ordering fancy vests, full dress suits, etc. Zim, in the wild excitement of having received such a big order, signs the official papers without realizing what he is doing. It is only when Zim is home with his family that he realizes the terrible thing he has done.
Directed by Edwin McKim, Otto the Soldier leans on a strong ensemble — Davy Don, Florence Williams, Alice Mann — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1916.
