This mostly lost film (please check your attic) is often confused with director Paul Wegener third and readily available interpretation of the legend; Der Golem, wie er in die Welt kam (1920). In this version of the golem legend, the golem, a clay statue brought to life by Rabbi Loew in 16th century Prague to save the Jews from the ongoing brutal persecution by the city's rulers, is found in the rubble of an old synagogue in the 20th century. Brought to life by an antique dealer, the golem is used as a menial servant. Eventually falling in love with the dealer's wife, it goes on a murderous rampage when its love for her goes unanswered.

Este é o segundo filme dirigido por Hitchcock, mas, que se saiba, não resta nenhuma cópia. Em Kentucky, Beatrice (Nita Naldi) é uma professora que recusa as abordagens do vilão Pettigrew (Bernhard Goetzke). Como vingança, ele inventa que ela teria molestado Edward (John Hamilton), um jovem retardado. Temendo a ira dos moradores da cidade, Beatrice se esconde nas montanhas, onde é acolhida pelo eremita Fear O God (Malcom Keen). Ele propõe um casamento de aparências para acalmar os ânimos das pessoas, mas os dois se afeiçoam e a união se torna real. Mas Pettigrew, ainda com ciúmes e raiva, arma novas mentiras para prejudicar os dois, dando continuidade a uma trama de intrigas, injustiças e reviravoltas. Apesar da história se passar nos Estados Unidos, o filme foi rodado nas montanhas da Áustria. Filme mudo.
Harpo played the hero, a detective named Watson who "made his entrance in a high hat, sliding down a coal chute into the basement". Groucho played an "old movie" villain, who "sported a long moustache and was clad in black", while Chico was probably his "chuckling [Italian] henchman". Zeppo portrayed a playboy who was the owner of a nightclub in which most of the action took place, including "a cabaret, [which allowed] the inclusion of a dance number". The final shot showed Groucho "in ball and chain, trudging slowly off into the gloaming". Harpo, in a rare moment of romantic glory, gets the girl in the end.
Why Women Love (1925)
Playboy Teddy Ward wants to marry Jeannie King, an artist, but his father wants him to marry Loris Lane, but tells Teddy he can marry whom he pleases if he will make the Mountain Inn a profitable operation. Teddy agrees, and with the support of his friends arranges an ice-boat race with a $10,000 prize to the winner. A problem arises when his father refuses to pay such an amount. Teddy thinks one of his friends will win the race and refuse the prize, but champion racer "Duke" Slade shows up and Teddy knows he will take the money. Some movie stars show up and, while using their own names, are definitely not playing "Self" in this fictional film.
