Yankee Doodle in Berlin is a 1919 silent comedy and World War I propaganda film from producer Mack Sennett. It was Sennett's most expensive production up to that time. Hiram Abrams was the original State's Rights marketer before the film's release but producer Sol Lesser bought the rights in March 1919.[1]
