The Custard Cup is a 1923 American drama film directed by Herbert Brenon and written by G. Marion Burton and Ralph Spence.
The film stars Mary Carr, Myrta Bonillas, Miriam Battista, Jerry Devine, Ernest McKay, and Peggy Shaw.
[1][2][3] As described in a film magazine,[4] Mrs. Penfield (Carr), or Penzie, known for her goodness, lives in a little group settlement with her two adopted children.
During a boat excursion sponsored by Alderman Curry (Hendricks), Frank is discovered passing off his false notes and Gussie gives Penzie a large bill to buy refreshments for the children but to return the change to her.
Later, as the law enforcement net begins to close on them, the Bosleys prepare to leave but are apprehended by Secret Service men.
