Jackie (1921 film)

Jackie is a 1921 American silent drama film directed by John Ford.

[2][3] As described in a film magazine,[4] Jacqueline (Mason), an orphaned daughter of a famous Russian dancer, has been raised by a French woman who runs a cheap dancing school.

Called Jackie for short, her foster mother contracts her to a rough, uncouth showman, Bill Bowman (Carter), who ill treats her.

Mervyn arranges for Benny to be sent to a hospital and Jackie to a noted dancing master.

She buys herself out of the contract by paying Bill 500 pounds, and eventually marries Mervyn.
