Lazy Lightning

Lazy Lightning is a 1926 American silent Western film directed by William Wyler and starring Art Acord, Fay Wray, and Robert Gordon.

Dickie Rogers, an invalid child who has never walked, takes a liking to the stranger who is allowed to remain to do odd jobs and to entertain the boy.

Uncle Henry, heir to Dickie’s share of the estate in the event of the latter’s death, has been systematically cheated at cards by Bill Harvey, who now demands his money, using dire threats.

Fearing a penitentiary sentence, Uncle Henry sees Dickie rolling helplessly in his wheel chair towards a cliff and does nothing to save him.

He enters and fights Harvey and Henry, carrying back the serum that saves the boy’s life and wins the love of his sister Lila.
