Everybody's Sweetheart is a 1920 American silent comedy-drama film[citation needed] directed by Laurence Trimble and Alan Crosland and written by John Lynch.

The film stars Olive Thomas and William Collier, Jr.[1][2] Everybody's Sweetheart was Thomas' final film role and was released nearly a month after her death from acute nephritis (due to accidental ingestion of mercury bichloride) in Paris on September 10, 1920.

[3][4] A copy of Everybody's Sweetheart is preserved in the George Eastman House Motion Picture Collection.

[5] As described in a film magazine,[6] Mary (Thomas) and John (Collier), residents of the county poor farm, have had their lots cast there by a train wreck from which they were taken as babies and the identity of their parents lost.

She concentrates her gospel of cheer and kindness of heart, however, on John and old Corporal Joe (Wilson), a Civil War veteran, mothering the two most solicitously.
