the terror of the border

I checked out this amazing movie from the library: Die Bergkatze (the Wildcat), which is a silent German comedy from 1921. It features a group of robbers who wear felt cutout skulls on their hats and purses, and seem to mostly steal clothing. They also enjoy being whipped by the girl robber. And then there's the dream sequence with an orchestra made up of Pillsbury doughboys.
