Silent. Playwright Henry Bernstein fought yet another duel on 26 July 1911 as an outcome of the riots instituted by members of the Royalist orgainization, "Camelots du Roi," at the Theatre Francais, which eventually forced Bernstein's play, "Apres Moi," off the stage. Bernstein had a frank encounter with Maurice Pujo, a member of "Camelots du Roi."
Newspaper accounts stated the encounter was, "rapid and exciting. Bernstein scratched the forearm of his adversary twice, and was himself slightly wounded in the arm by Pujo. The seconds stopped the duel at the seventh bout."
Only days before Bernstein had enjoyed frank encounters with M. Tery and with Leon Daudet.

I have to admit, I'm surprised there is this much footage of actual duels.
