The Terror
Gunman Chuck Connelly is hired to silence the new district attorney who has been pounding the graft organizations. Chuck goes to the D. A.'s home to threaten him, but is taken off guard when his victim's little daughter leans trustfully on his knee and looks up at him with a smile. The D. A. ignores Chuck's warning, and the gang orders the gunman to execute him. Chuck breaks into the house, but sees the little girl again and is unable to complete his task. Instead, he seeks out his girl friend, Annie Mangan, a Salvation Army reformer, and swears to end his life of crime.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The director constructs a classic melodrama, relying on the stark contrast between the brutal adult world and a child's innocent trust. It explores a moment of moral awakening through the economical yet expressive tools of silent cinema.
Those who tire of cynicism will find a touching, straightforward redemption tale where a single glance can awaken humanity in a hardened criminal. What lingers after is a sense of earnest hope. — MovieFinder Editorial
