Penny of Top Hill Trail
Director
Penny arrives in the West by aeroplane. She is considered a suspicious character and thrown into jail. Kurt Walters, a ranch foreman and deputy sheriff, discovers that she is the same girl that his friend, Jo Gary, met in Chicago. Gary fell in love with her, but she confessed she was a thief. Since Penny claims she wants to reform, Walters releases her and sends her to live with Mrs. Kingdon. In spite of her teasing and taunts (or perhaps because of them), Walters finds himself falling in love with Penny.
Men Who Have Made Love to Me
Director
The story of six affairs of the heart, drawn from controversial feminist author Mary MacLane's 1910 syndicated article(s) by the same name, later published in book form in 1917. None of MacLane's affairs - with "the bank clerk," "the prize-fighter," "the husband of another," and so on - last, and in each of them MacLane emerges dominant. Re-enactments of the love affairs are interspersed with MacLane addressing the camera (while smoking), and talking contemplatively with her maid on the meaning and prospects of love.

Young Mother Hubbard
Director
Forced by the death of her mother to care for her three brothers and sisters, little Mona Fairfax is known to farmers of her district as Young Mother Hubbard. The children's step-father, heavily in debt and tired of the burden imposed by the little family, abandons his farm, leaving the children, penniless, to shift for themselves. The following day Daniel Banning, a wealthy "country gentleman" and owner of the Fairfax farm, calls to collect back rent. He finds Mona and her children panic-stricken over a note left by their step-father, telling of his decision to leave. Banning turns a deaf ear to Mona's pleas that she be allowed to remain on the farm with her wards. He notifies the Children's Welfare Society. Directors of the society go to the farm, load them into an automobile, and take them to the society's headquarters. At headquarters the chairman calls for volunteers to take the children into their homes.

The Return of Eve
Director
Believing that over-civilization was destroying the race, Eli Tapper, an eccentric millionaire, took two unrelated orphan children, a boy and a girl, and placed them in a wilderness, there in the care of an old tutor, David Winters, to grow up as a new Adam and Eve, and become path-breakers of a better race.
Нетерпимость
Second Assistant Director
Фильм «Нетерпимость» — один из этапных в развитии мирового киноискусства; — это сложная сюжетная конструкция из четырех перемежающихся новелл, показывавших четыре различные эпохи. В ленте, снятой с грандиозным постановочным размахом, был затронут широкий круг философских и моральных проблем. Нетерпимость трактована как зло, отравляющее жизнь во все времена и у всех народов. Обратившись к огромному историческому и мифологическому материалу, Гриффит использовал при его воплощении необычные для того времени кинематографические средства и приемы, определившие новаторское значение фильма.
Шерлок Холмс
Director
Фильм «Джилетт», который долгое время считался потерянным с момента его первого выпуска, является жизненно важным недостающим звеном в истории Холмса на экране. К моменту создания фильма «Джилетт» был признан ведущим в мире интерпретатор Холмса на сцене. Он дал свое лицо и манеру детективу и вдохновил классика иллюстраций Фредерика Дорра Стила. В фильме верно сохраняются знаменитые постановочные пьесы - встреча Холмса с профессором Мориарти, его дерзкий побег из газовой камеры «Степни» и вынужденные силовые выводы - и иллюстрирует, как «Джилетт» переплел кусочки из историй Конан Дойля, начиная от «Скандала в Богемии» и заканчивая «Последней проблемой», до оригинальной, новаторской загадочной игры.
The Havoc
Director
Richard Craig and Paul Hessert, who work in the same office, are great chums. Both are in love, however, with the stenographer.
