Thanks for the Buggy Ride

Thanks for the Buggy Ride is a 1928 American comedy film directed by William A. Seiter and written by Beatrice Van and Tom Reed. The film was first released on April 1, 1928, by Universal Pictures. Due to the public apathy towards silent films, a sound version was prepared late in 1928. While the sound version has no audible dialog, it features a synchronized musical score with sound effects using both the sound-on-disc and sound-on-film process. The film stars Laura La Plante, Glenn Tryon, Richard Tucker, Kate Price, Jack Raymond and Trixie Friganza. [1][2][3]
