This poignant love story focuses on struggling artist Joseph Cotten as he gradually falls in love with Jennie (Jennifer Jones), a strange young woman he meets in Central Park. As Cotten occasionally encounters her over a series of months, she seems to be maturing before his eyes - and he slowly comes to realize that his muse is the restless spirit of a long-dead woman.

Based on the life of poet François Villon, this silent is set in William Cameron Menzies’ fantastic vision of 15th-century Paris and is packed with adventure and laughs. Star John Barrymore described Villon as a “poet, pickpocket, patriot - loving France earnestly, French women excessively, and French wine exclusively.” With Conrad Veidt as King Louis XI.

Silent cinema's foremost Western star, the great William S. Hart, directed and stars in this excellent feature. In an absorbing tale of treachery and redemption characteristic of Hart's best work, he plays "Silent" Bill Marr, who arrives in the town of Bakeoven to register his claim to a gold mine only to get swindled by dancehall owner "Handsome" Jack Pressley (Robert McKim). There's plenty of action and some wonderful location photography as our hero sets out to make matters right.
