This was in a larger sequence that was intended to be an otherwise-nostalgic trip back through the decades. For comparison, 1924 was represented by the Charleston and 1904 was a waltzy ballroom scene. My first thought was Vernon and Irene Castle but they would have been more appropriate for 1914.
Today's movie was Pearl (2022) and funnily enough, this is not the strangest musical tribute to the horrors of WWI that I've seen. That was in Evergreen (1934), a leftfield burst of expressionism in an otherwise normal movie, produced by people who were (mostly) all around during the actual war.
