# What Price Glory? (1926)

1926 · 116 min · Drama, Comedy, War · United States


## Synopsis

What Price Glory is a 1926 American synchronized sound comedy drama war film produced and distributed by Fox Film Corporation and directed by Raoul Walsh. The film was released with a synchronized musical score with sound effects using the Movietone sound system though it contains no audible dialogue. This film is historically significant as it was Fox's first sound film. The film is based on the 1924 play What Price Glory by Maxwell Anderson and Laurence Stallings and was remade in 1952 as What Price Glory starring James Cagney. Malcolm Stuart Boylan, founder of the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary, was title writer on the Fox attraction. The film is preserved in full with its original sound-on-film elements at the George Eastman Museum.
