A KNIGHT OF THE PINES stars Edgar Jones as a man who thinks he's getting married, but his sweetie (Edna May Sperl) runs off with another man (Ben Hendricks). He goes on a bender and attacks the local game warden (Carlton Brickert) and runs off into the woods.
Later, when he hears that his rival is deadly ill, he goes to the lumber camp where the guy's he's dying and drags him across the frozen landscape back to his wife. A doctor is then able to save his life, and Jones faces up to his punishment.
Filmed in and around Augusta, Maine, by Jones in the winter of 1919/1920. It's so cold you can see the actors' breaths ... even when they're inside!
