West Point (1928) is a silent movie starring William Haines and Joan Crawford, about an arrogant cadet who finds love and discipline just in time for the big Army-Navy game.

[edit] Synopsis

Arrogant and impudent Brice Wayne, a West Point cadet who is a star player on the football team, painfully learns the error of his ways when, after a year, he realizes that he hasn't acquired the proper school spirit. Dismissed from the football team shortly before the Army-Navy match, Brice resigns from the Military Academy, then retracts when his friends Tex McNeil and Betty Channing encourage him to stay. Restored to the team, Brice scores the decisive goal in the game against the Navy.
