''It's the Old Army Game'' (1926) is a silent film comedy starring W. C. Fields and Louise Brooks. The "army game" is the shell game, a con-trick which WC Fields observes being played. "It's the old army game" he says, sagely. ==Production background== The film was directed by A. Edward Sutherland, billed as Eddie Sutherland, and co-stars Sutherland's aunt, the stage actress Blanche Ring in one of her few silent film appearances. The film is based on the revue ''The Comic Supplement'' by Joseph P. McEvoy and Fields, and included several skits from Fields' stage plays.〔Louvish, Simon (1997).

Sutherland and Brooks married in June 1926, and divorced in June 1928.
