Riley the Cop (1928)

Information from IMDb

Plot Summary
New York policeman James Riley is asked to retrieve neighborhood boy
Joe Smith (David Rollins), who skipped town after being falsely accused of theft and is now
living a sinful life in Berlin. It isn't long before Riley himself succumbs to charms of the
German metropolis, whereupon he magnanimously allows Joe to stay in Berlin long enough
to win the heart of aristocratic Mary Coronelli (Nancy Drexel). Riley himself also finds
romance, in the form of gawky German damsel Lena (Louise Fazenda). Little does he realize
that Lena is the sister of his hated rival — police officer Hans Krausmeyer (Harry Schultz).

Riley the Cop is a 1928 silent comedy film,
with a synchronized music track.
All evidence suggests that Riley the Cop was a delightful vehicle
for John Ford "regular" J. Farrell McDonald.
It would seem that the movie is presently unavailable
but not completely lost.
