Headlines (1925 film)

Headlines is a 1925 American silent adventure and crime drama film directed by Edward H. Griffith and starring Alice Joyce and Malcolm McGregor.

[1][2] As described in a film magazine review,[3] Phyllis Dale is a young widowed author and newspaper writer, respected and admired by Lawrence Emmett.

Bobby, her young flapper daughter, has an interesting “line” that she uses on all men.

Bobby, thoroughly and sincerely conscience-stricken by the turn of affairs and realizing how much her mother was willing to sacrifice for her, vindicates Phyllis in the eyes of Emmett, who has followed her to the apartment, and marries the editor of the local newspaper who has suppressed the scandalous headlines.

Prints of Headlines survive in the Library of Congress and EYE Film Institute Netherlands.
