So Quiet on the Canine Front is a 1930 American comedy short film, from Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, that parodies Universal Pictures' celebrated anti-war drama All Quiet on the Western Front, the winner, on November 5, 1930, at the 3rd Academy Awards, of the Award for Best Picture (referenced at the time as the Award for Outstanding Production).The cast consists of performing dogs whose chewing or barking jaw movements are overdubbed with human voices. The third of nine black-and-white two-reel Dogville Comedies directed for MGM between 1929 and 1931 by Zion Myers and Jules White, both of whom also wrote, produced and provided voices, the film has been intermittently broadcast on Turner Classic Movies and is available on DVD as part of the Dogville Shorts Collection.
