The Amateur Gentleman
DirectorSidney Olcott
“A PICTURE AS ONLY THE MOST LOVABLE OF ACTORS COULD GIVE TO THE SCREEN.”
Barbanas Barty inherits some money, sets off to London, meets and falls in love with Lady Cleone Meredith, and this does not set well with Sir Mortiner Carnaby, who has eyes on the fair lady himself. Barnaby becomes friend with Viscount Devehon, buys a horse from him and enters it in the big steeplechase. Sir Mortimer takes steps to rid society of the presence of this non-gentleman.
