In a series of episodic vignettes, pioneering director D.W. Griffith explores the life and turbulent times of the 16th President of the United States.

After being mysteriously summoned to an abandoned mine, a man and woman find themselves the targets of a frontier outlaw and his vicious gang. Meanwhile, a mysterious and terrifying ghost appears in the mineshaft with plans of its own.

It's déjà vu all over again in this scandalous comedy about marital infidelity directed by two-time Academy Award-winner Frank Borzage and based on the hit stage play by W. Somerset Maugham. Bored with her marriage to stuffy aristocrat Arnold Cheney (Creighton Hale), Elizabeth (Eleanor Boardman) is planning to trade him in for a new model (Malcolm McGregor), just as Arnold's mother (Eugenie Besserer) did to his father (Alec Francis) 30 years before. To help her decide if she's made the right choice, Elizabeth invites her mother-in-law and her husband (George Fawcett) to pay them a visit, while Arnold takes measures to save his marriage with a hard-hitting plan of his own. The first film to feature Lucille LeSueur acting under the name Joan Crawford (playing the young Lady Catherine).

The rich playboy son of the town squire and the older daughter of a poor widow become star-crossed lovers kept apart by his status-obsessed father.
