The Christian
DirectorFrederick A. Thomson
“Hall Caine's superb love story, in eight parts. A stupendous production in five hundred scenes, featuring Earl Williams and Edith Story.”
Glory Quayle, a natural-born mimic, leaves her country home, reaches London, goes on the stage, gains fame and affluence. John Storm, her country sweetheart, believing he has lost Glory forever, enters a monastery, tries to forget her, cannot kill his love, returns to the world, becomes a famous slum worker and friend of the poor.
