The Battle of the Sexes

Directed by D.W. Griffith

After the wealthy and married William Judson meets young, attractive Marie Skinner, he's flattered by her attention. What he fails to realize is that Marie has plotted with her lover to seduce Judson for his money. When his family points out her motives, Judson quarrels with them and moves out. Desperate for a solution, Judson's daughter Ruth takes a gun with intentions of shooting Marie – unless her lover can talk her out of it.
