two arabian knights was one of several films that launched the hollywood career of howard hughes . classics like hell’s angels and scarface would follow . the wild ride would come to a sorry end with the conqueror ( john wayne as genghis khan . enough said . ) some thirty years later . but it was fun while it lasted . two arabian knights is one of the cuter action comedies of the later silent period , the sort of thing douglas fairbanks produced so well in the ‘teens . see it if you get the opportunity .
restored by the ucla television and film archives , it has now been brought to dvd in a splendid two - disc special edition by the specialty distributor flicker alley , which in collaboration with blackhawk films and david shepard’s film preservation associates has re - introduced the public to long - unseen films like “two arabian knights” and “bardelys the magnificent . ”
two arabian knights
has the distinction of winning one of the first two oscars given for best direction . in the academy ' s first year , 1927 - 28 , the best director award was split between dramatic and comedy categories , and
two arabian knights
won the latter . indeed , it ' s only the first of two films in oscar history - - the second being
the divine lady
the following year - - to win a best director oscar without being nominated for best picture , but since that first year was the only one in which two directing awards were given , it isn ' t an apples to apples comparison with other years . lewis milestone , who certainly deserved to win an oscar for something and would become the first person to…

two arabian knights may not be the best of lewis milestone ' s films that i ' ve seen ( that title still goes to the astonishing all quiet on the western front ) , but it ' s certainly his most watchable and enjoyable ; a very charming comedy bolstered by two terrific performances by william boyd and louis wolheim , with handsome sets and a refreshing comic innocence .
two arabian knights was one of the fortunate rediscoveries and its reappearance was hailed for several reasons . first , it is among the earliest surviving howard hughes - produced film . second , it is the film that won director lewis milestone the first and only oscar for best direction of a comedic film .
the reviews of the time for howard hughes ' second production effort seemed to all agree that
two arabian knights
( 1927 ) was good comedy . viewing today supports that opinion ; however , don ' t be led to believe it comes anywhere close to the chaplin - keaton - lloyd caliber of comedy .

two arabian knights weirdly makes unquestioned heroes out of people who , during the first world war , both abandon loyalty to their country to fight for preservation of self ( very bold for a film released less than a decade after that war actually ended ) and insult multiple countries and cultures along the way ( icky ! , especially when you throw in the whitewashing of actors in roles of color ) .
with this film , frank lloyd became one of only two directors to win the best director oscar without their movie also being nominated for best picture . the only other film to win a directing oscar without a best picture nomination was two arabian knights ( 1927 ) , which won the only oscar ever given for comedy direction to lewis milestone . both lloyd and milestone won additional best director oscars for directing best picture winners , lloyd for cavalcade ( 1933 ) and milestone for all quiet on the western front ( 1930 ) .

is excellent quality throughout most of the film , there are a few instances where mild mottling is apparent and a couple of scenes where the mottling does interfere with the viewing . as usual , robert israel ' s orchestra score is superb . you ' ll particulary like the lovely melody during boyd ' s and astor ' s lovemaking scenes .

the emir orders the americans killed for daring to despoil his daughter . shevket , who hated phelps at first sight , is ready and willing to carry out the order personally . so phelps and o’gaffney are alone in arabia with prices on their heads . what do they do ? if you guessed “squabble” , you are absolutely correct ! two arabian knights is a darling comedy with nary a false step . the plot is sheer nuttiness , the acting is pitch perfect and there is just enough slapstick to keep things interesting .
the films , which have not been seen for more than 50 years , are digitally restored through tcm funding by special arrangement with flicker alley . each has a new score by composer robert israel . two arabian knights ( 1927 ) , which won the only academy award given for best comedy direction , is about a pair of roughnecks who pose as arabs to escape from a world war i prison camp . the racket ( 1928 ) , nominated for best picture , is an expose of chicago gangsterdom . the mating call ( 1928 ) includes many typical hughes touches .

best director , comedy picture
for lewis milestone . this award was never given again , instead being fused with

: there may be no marriage . mirza ' s servant has told me strange things of two americans - - he has even said she unveiled her face before one of the infidels .
( 1926 ) . ( the two films share a common writer , james t . o ' donohoe , and , in each , the two male leads enjoy the same bickering relationship . ) according to higham , hughes not only agreed to produce the picture but eventually put $ 500 , 000 of his own money into it . he cast louis wolheim , william boyd ( later to play hopalong cassidy ) and mary astor in the leads and made a deal with jesse l . lasky to release the film .
relates the adventures of a sergeant ( wolheim ) and a private ( boyd ) who are captured by the germans and escape by disguising themselves as arabs . dispatched to the middle east , both doughboys fall for a beautiful arabian princess ( astor ) , but must deal with a gang of cut - throats led by her father .
during world war i , soldier w . daingerfield phelps iii ( william boyd ) and sergeant peter o ' gaffney ( louis wolheim ) are captured by the germans . initially at odds , the two prisoners of war bond and plot an escape . the white robes they use as camouflage in the snow - covered landscape make them look like arabs . taking advantage of their disguise , the two men sneak onto a cargo ship bound for arabia , where they both fall for mirza ( mary astor ) , a soon - to - be - married harem girl .
the next day a boat arrives at the ship to take mirza home . this is the first encounter between phelps and mirza ' s betrothed - shevket ben ali - played handsomely and threateningly by ian keith . no words are exchanged - the two simply glare at one another - no words necessary .
it seems to me this snappy and sexy late silent — it opened in new york in december 1927 , two months after “the jazz singer” — is a much superior film to not only its suprisingly threadbare oscar - winning successor , but is also better than william wellman’s nonmusical remake “roxie hart” ( 1942 ) .
it is on the ship that we encounter the beautiful and very young ( she was 21 at the time ) mary astor as the arabian princess mirza . why she is on a small boat with a makeshift sail alongside this freighter , we do not know . however , the small boat capsizes dumping her and several others into the ocean , and phelps and o ' gaffney dive in to rescue her .
in september 1928 warner bros . pictures purchased a majority interest in first national pictures , and from that point on all
first national
productions were actually made under warner bros . control , even though the two companies continued to retain separate identities until the mid - ' 30s , after which time
a warner bros . - first national picture
was often used .
two subsequent plays flopped , and watkins went to toil as a hollywood screenwriter — her most notable co - credit there was the classic newspaper comedy “libeled lady . ” she moved to florida in 1940 , became a reclusive christian scientist , and died in 1969 . it was only after this that bob fosse was able to obtain rights for his stage musical from her heirs .
when the lover moves to dump the grasping roxie , she plugs him in a moment of passion . and it’s up to her chump husband to keep roxie from the electic chair . intrestingly , the role is played not by a nebbishly actor as in the two later movies — george chandler in 1942 and john c . reilly sixty years later — but by the handsome victor varconi , who is far more attractive than the wealthier pallette .
princess mirza ( mary astor ) is engaged to shevket ben ali ( ian keith ) but she finds phelps much , much nicer . however , she is obedient to her father and will go through with her marriage . two problems present themselves . first , phelps is not a guy who gives up easily . second , mirza’s servants have seen her canoodling with phelps and have reported the unseemly goings - on to her father and her fiancé .
mary astor , who could be a powerhouse when given the chance , is pretty much there for window dressing . she’s a lovely , if not exactly authentic , arabian nights princess complete with veil . oh and boris karloff ? he is in the film for about 12 seconds as the purser of the russian ship . keep your eyes peeled , blink and you miss him . the exotic locales are pretty much by the book and fodder for gags with no real character to them . no matter , because cast and audience are having a ball .
the host pokes fun at the cook , riding at the back of the company , blind drunk . the cook is unable to honor the host’s request that he tell a tale , and the manciple criticizes him for his drunkenness . the manciple relates the legend of a white crow , taken from the roman poet ovid’s metamorphoses and one of the tales in the arabian nights . in it , phoebus’s talking white crow informs him that his wife is cheating on him . phoebus kills the wife , pulls out the crow’s white feathers , and curses it with blackness .
one of the first things howard hughes built was a motorized bicycle , using parts from a dismantled steam engine . well , no pressure , our bikes are manual and we don ' t have any dismantled steam engines lying around , but what we do have are miles and miles of trails to take you to the ocean or as far inland as your heart desires . just show up at the toy box , also known as building 18 , sign your name , don your helmut , and you ' re off . a skid or two ' s ok , but no wheelies , please .
private phelps and sergeant mcgaffney , who are constantly scrapping until they meet a common foe , are taken prisoners by germans during the war , and failing many attempts to escape , they succeed in slipping out in arab disguise . finding themselves on a steamer bound for jaffa , mcgaffney , phelps , and the ship ' s captain discover themselves rivals for mirza , an arab girl of rank . young phelps makes progress with her by sign language , even to the point of making her remove her veil . in jaffa , a spying servant informs shevket , her fiancé , of her acquaintance with the american , and her father , the emir , plots to imprison them , but they are saved by the american consul . the emir makes the soldiers knights so that phelps can fight a duel with shevket ; but in a series of escapades , the boys foil their enemies and abscond with the girl .
the merchant reflects on the great difference between the patient griselde of the clerk’s tale and the horrible shrew he has been married to for the past two months . the host asks him to tell a story of the evils of marriage , and he complies . against the advice of his friends , an old knight named january marries may , a beautiful young woman . she is less than impressed by his enthusiastic sexual efforts , and conspires to cheat on him with his squire , damien . when blind january takes may into his garden to copulate with her , she tells him she wants to eat a pear , and he helps her up into the pear tree , where she has sex with damien . pluto , the king of the faeries , restores january’s sight , but may , caught in the act , assures him that he must still be blind . the host prays to god to keep him from marrying a wife like the one the merchant describes .
because he also does carpentry , the reeve takes offense at the miller’s tale of a stupid carpenter , and counters with his own tale of a dishonest miller . the reeve tells the story of two students , john and alayn , who go to the mill to watch the miller grind their corn , so that he won’t have a chance to steal any . but the miller unties their horse , and while they chase it , he steals some of the flour he has just ground for them . by the time the students catch the horse , it is dark , so they spend the night in the miller’s house . that night , alayn seduces the miller’s daughter , and john seduces his wife . when the miller wakes up and finds out what has happened , he tries to beat the students . his wife , thinking that her husband is actually one of the students , hits the miller over the head with a staff . the students take back their stolen goods and leave .
the events taking place on the ship provide several entertaining moments . unconscious , mirza is taken by the despicable turkish captain to a cabin . his intentions are made clear by the panning of the camera from her feet , along her body , to her head - so the viewer may see how the skipper is talking a lustful view of his unexpected passenger . of course , phelps and o ' gaffney are soon vying to be the first to see her without her veil , and their shenanigans to outsmart each other provide some of the film ' s most humorous moments . for example , the two are waiting for their clothes to dry after their rescue plunge - both intending to go check on mirza as soon as the clothes are wearable . o ' gaffney gets the idea that he will go into the bath , close the door , and soak phelps ' uniform in the tub so he can get out the door faster . phelps catches on , and once o ' gaffney is fully dressed to go , he pushes the sergeant into the tub full of water .
the host is dismayed by the tragic injustice of the physician’s tale , and asks the pardoner to tell something merry . the other pilgrims contradict the host , demanding a moral tale , which the pardoner agrees to tell after he eats and drinks . the pardoner tells the company how he cheats people out of their money by preaching that money is the root of all evil . his tale describes three riotous youths who go looking for death , thinking that they can kill him . an old man tells them that they will find death under a tree . instead , they find eight bushels of gold , which they plot to sneak into town under cover of darkness . the youngest goes into town to fetch food and drink , but brings back poison , hoping to have the gold all to himself . his companions kill him to enrich their own shares , then drink the poison and die under the tree . his tale complete , the pardoner offers to sell the pilgrims pardons , and singles out the host to come kiss his relics . the host infuriates the pardoner by accusing him of fraud , but the knight persuades the two to kiss and bury their differences .

the tale concerns the adventures of a wwi soldier and his sergeant . w . dangerfield phelps ( william boyd ) is an old money smart aleck who is constantly harassed by the thuggish sgt . peter o’gaffney ( louis wolheim ) . the pair carry their squabbling onto the battlefield and even keep it up when they are captured by the germans and sent to a pow camp . in the face of a common problem , o’gaffney and phelps bury the hatchet ( though not too deeply ) and plot a jailbreak . they finally succeed by donning burnooses and posing as arabs . from there , the unlikely allies catch a russian ship bound for arabia .
en route , o’gaffney and phelps rescue a shipwrecked princess who is returning home to arabia . all bets are off . o’gaffney and phelps bicker about who gets to flirt with the young lady .
louis wolheim is particularly fun as the endearingly crude sgt . o’gaffney . with his smashed nose ( courtesy of football injuries ) and burly build , he is the classic movie tough but he exudes a winning charm that makes him almost cuddly . he and william boyd have great comedic chemistry as a pair of frenemies in the what price glory mode . ( wolheim had starred in the stage version . )

cast : william boyd ( w . dangerfield phelps iii ) , mary astor ( mirza ) , louis wolheim ( sergeant peter o ' gaffney ) , ian keith ( shevket ) , michael vevitch ( the emir ) . m . visatoff ( the skipper ) , boris karloff ( the purser ) , dewitt jennings ( american consul )
photoplay said ,
this is a real comedy .
( 1 ) the new york times called it a
genuinely clever comedy ,
( 2 ) and harrison ' s reports simply began their review with
good !
( 3 )
boyd is w . dangerfield phelps iii , of a wealthy philadelphia family , and wolheim is peter o ' gaffney , who , we learn , is a small - time crook who apparently has found refuge in the army . the film gets off to a rousing start as we are shown a very realistic nighttime battle scene , rain pouring and nothing but mud all around . phelps jumps into an unusually deep bomb crater and find another soldier lying unconscious , covered in mud . he goes to help him , but when he realizes it is sergeant o ' gaffney , he pushes the sergeant ' s face back down angrily and throws mud in his face . of course , when o ' gaffney awakes , they end up in a fistic battle that continues until o ' gaffney , lying on his back , looks up and sees a proportionately spaced circle of germans around the top of the hole , guns and bayonets extended in perfect unity . milestone framed an excellent shot from o ' gaffney ' s perspective looking up at the imposing sight . the added touch of a flare bursting overhead makes the shot all the more impressive .
later , we see phelps on deck with mirza and o ' gaffney inside the cabin in his tunic and long johns looking for his pants . later we find out that phelps was wearing his own pants and o ' gaffney ' s !
the final section of the film involves the boys ' efforts to get to mirza . the captain of the ship has gone to the american consulate because o ' gaffney
rolled
( as in
robbed ) his purser , so they can ' t go there for help . shevket tells mirza ' s father that the
infidels
have seen mirza without her veil , so the father declares that they must dies . however , the boys unwittingly and blithely walk up to palace for an audience with the father thinking he will reward them for rescuing their daughter .
mirza sees them at the gate from a balcony overlooking the courtyard and quickly throws them a note . at the same time , the gates are opening for them , so they decide to read the note later . after meeting the father , they think they are being escorted toward some reward when phelps pulls the note out to read which reads ,
do not enter - death !
the boys barely escape , but now they are fugitives in the town . of course , o ' gaffney wants to leave , but phelps refuses to leave without mirza .
there are some neat turns and twists as they make their way back to the palace , and phelps is caught by shevket and his guards in mirza ' s room . a particularly neat surprise has been built into the story when shevket offers to have a duel with phelps - with the winner taking mirza . the duel is with pistols , but , as shevket explains , one has a real bullet - the other a blank cartridge .

an oscar oddity , winning in the comedy directing category that became defunct after the first year ( frank borzage was noted for his dramatic directing in
7th heaven
, a classic of the silent era ) . lewis milestone will revisit the world war i trenches in
all quiet on the western front
to heartrending effect , but here the laughs come quick . for the most part . . . yeah . . . there are a few good gags , though the premise is paper thin .
but director lewis milestone , along with cinematopgrahers tony gaudio and joseph h . august , really know how to shoot a film . dynamic and fluid camerawork and interesting lighting that take advantage of the constantly changing set designs that come from the ambition to make this a true globe - trotter .
enjoyed this buddy comedy about a soldier and his sergeant as they escape a pow camp in wwi , fall for the same woman aboard a ship , and have to duel her brother for her hand . silly , light on its feet , great chemistry , good fun .
every film that has ever been nominated for an academy award in any category . enjoy !

has said , and his novels enact and display that fragmentation with terror and glee . his new book assures us that reality has lately been crumbling more colossally than ever , and is about to come completely unglued . the climate destabilisation we are experiencing is only a foretaste of advancing chaos , which the author describes with considerable relish . eschatological lightning strikes , oracular infants and local failures of gravity will become the norm , as the dark ifrits , the mischievous forces of disorder , begin to take advantage of the weakening of the fabric of the everyday .
the cumbrous title transcribes a certain number of days into years and months , but not the four weeks that would naturally complete it , because the word “nights” is needed to suggest the original thousand and one . rushdie is our scheherazade , inexhaustibly enfolding story within story and unfolding tale after tale with such irrepressible delight that it comes as a shock to remember that , like her , he has lived the life of a storyteller in immediate peril . scheherazade told her 1 , 001 tales to put off a stupid , cruel threat of death ; rushdie found himself under similar threat for telling an unwelcome tale . so far , like her , he has succeeded in escaping . may he continue to do so .
at the idea of trying to summarise the plot , i shriek and fall back fainting on my seraglio couch . rushdie has a fractal imagination : plot buds from plot , endlessly . there are at least 1 , 001 stories and substories , and nearly as many characters . all you need to know is that they’re mostly highly entertaining , amusing and ingenious . a good many of the characters are in fact genies . the jinn live in their own world , peristan . but the dilapidation of reality in our world , intensifying since the second millennium , has affected the wall between us and peristan , leaving slots and slits through which they can slip .
