The Marriage Market is a 1923 American silent romantic comedy film directed by Edward LeSaint and starring Pauline Garon, Jack Mulhall, and Alice Lake.

[1] As described in a film magazine review,[2] mischievous pranks lead to the expulsion of Theodora Bland from a young woman's fashionable academy.

She aids Dora Smith, who is escaping from a reform school, and later impersonates her in the home of novelist Roland Carruthers.

Theodora's relatives endeavor to force her into an unwelcome marriage.

A historical sequence in the film reproduces the scene depicted in the 1875 painting The Babylonian Marriage Market by Edwin Long, which was also done in the Babylonian story of Intolerance (1916).
