Our Better Selves (1919)
Directed by George Fitzmaurice
“Enthralling story of two lives being wasted in idleness, vain and frivolous living tried by the fires of adversity.”
Drama, War · 50m
The marriage of a wealthy and frivolous member of French nobility, Loyette Merval, to an American aristocratic idler named Willard Standish, is a loving one, except for their mutual dissatisfaction with Willard's idleness. After Willard becomes a chauffeur, Loyette's subsequent disgust causes him to quit. When the war begins, Willard joins the French Secret Service, while Loyette continues her social life, upset about their separation. After Willard, wounded, hides in a convent, Loyette leaves to find him.
