Synopsis:
The adventures of three disparate cadets at the US Naval Academy–one the son of a Navy enlisted man, the other the scion of a wealthy family, the third decent but somewhat slow-witted–and their struggles with the rigors of the academy, women, and each other.

Review:
ANNAPOLIS SALUTE is a short and sweet 65-minute film about Bill Martin (Ellison), a new cadet at the U.S. Naval Academy. He falls in love with Julia (Hunt), the sister of his classmate (Arthur Lake); unfortunately another classmate (Van Heflin) is also taken with Julia, creating conflict between the men, but she’s only got eyes for Bill.

The path to true love isn’t smooth, especially when a drunken young woman (Ann Hovey) has a car wreck with Bill’s cap in her car, which gets him in trouble with the academy; Bill and Julia also face pressure from Bill’s proud father (Harry Carey Sr.) not to get too serious too fast, given how many years it will be before Bill is free to wed.

Ellison, who had spent the previous couple of years appearing in a number of Hopalong Cassidy Westerns, is appealing as an honorable young man, and Hunt is charming as always, managing to imbue her lightly written character with more depth than appears on paper. Carey similarly always adds tremendously to any film in which he appears.

Hunt and Heflin would both later work at MGM; half a decade after appearing in ANNAPOLIS SALUTE, they costarred in MGM’s KID GLOVE KILLER (1942) and SEVEN SWEETHEARTS (1942).

ANNAPOLIS SALUTE isn’t anything out of the ordinary, but it does what it sets out to do, entertain its audience for an hour or so with an interesting story about young men in the service. Viewing this knowing that it’s likely all of these young men would have been serving in WWII around the time of their graduation gives the film a bit of added poignance; indeed, it seems quite likely that many of the men seen in the background would later serve in the war in real life.

Very early, rare Doug Fairbanks.

Douglas Fairbanks and Bessie Love, 28 January 2008

Author: drednm
Douglas Fairbanks started his film career in breezy little comedies that stressed his athleticism. REGGIE MIXES IN in a good example. Here he plays Reggie, a rich young man (he was 33) who oddly gets involved as a bouncer in a beer hall, a gang of thugs, and a love woman (Bessie Love). No much sense to the plot, rather a string of events loosely tied together and all aimed for Reggie to win the girl.

Fairbanks started in films in 1915 and right from the start, refused to play love scenes. So even in this 1916 film, Fairbanks and Love clutch but never kiss. He has a few terrific stunts, however, that keep this film surprising and brisk (at 47 minutes). Co-stars include Alma Rubens (hysterically named Lemona), Joseph Singleton (as the butler Old Pickleface), Lillian Langdon (as the aunt), and Frank Bennett (as Sammy the thug).

Reggie is the perfect character for Fairbanks in these early films because they allow him to polish his acting skills and presage his astonishing career as the swashbuckling superstar of the 20s, a career that combined his great athletic skills with a great sense of fun.
