The Gilded Highway

The Gilded Highway is a lost 1926 American silent drama film directed by J. Stuart Blackton and starring Dorothy Devore, John Harron, and Macklyn Arbuckle.

[1][2] As described in a film magazine review,[3] a rich uncle dies and leaves money to the Welby family.

Young Jack Welby abandons Amabel, the young woman he is engaged to; his sister Primrose quits her fiance Hugo Blythe; and the whole family goes in for high living.

In the end when they are broke, they come to their senses, but not before all family members experience considerable grief.

A faithful former servant who runs their old home as a boarding house comes to their assistance.
