A recently released prisoner lives alone in his cabin so that his bad temper won’t get him back in any more trouble, but his peaceful existence is disrupted when a mysterious woman arrives.

Great restoration. Great scenario and acting. Fun to realize was filmed at Biograph Studio in Long Island, NY. The very same studio Ann Darrow (King Kong) did extra work.
They just went out and left that dog there to decompose in the cabin. Dang.
Fabulous quality for 1934 !!!!
A great stage play wonderful lighting and acting . I mostly remember Melvin D and Ralph B as older men in movies like Being there and Rosemarys Baby . Interesting to see them as younger men . I remember Fay from bad prints of King Kong on TV , Fay lived until 2004 dying at 96 .
Excellent restoration thanks !
Thanks David Shepard Estate!
Good one.
That was a great movie! I loved it and thank you, CCC!!!😊
This is a good, clear print, but I just can't stand Ralph Bellamy!! Can you post a copy of this movie with all his scenes deleted? Thank you.
Che peccato così pochi film in italiano o tradotti malamente coi sottotitoli che spesso non hanno niente a che fare col testo😔
Good ol Days I'd love to be able to go in a Time machine and go back to the simple times
Fay was a fragile beauty. and Bellamy was never that young! Thanks!
No download
