The Great Love

Directed by D.W. Griffith

With Lillian Gish, Robert Harron, George Siegmann, Gloria Hope and Maxfield Stanley

An idealistic young American during World War I, itching to fight the Germans and not wanting to wait until the U.S. joins the war, journeys to Canada, where he enlists in the British army. He is sent to train in England, and then to the front in France, where he's wounded. Returned to England to recuperate from his wounds, he falls in love with the daughter of an Australian minister.
