Griffith silent romantic adventure cowboy western ("A Tale of the Olden West"; "Photographed by G.W. Bitzer"; about a girl who was given away by her mother as a child, and she gets a chance to meet her mother when she is grown up, but she doesn't know that her mother is a saloon hall girl who is about to be hung; she reunites with her mother, and a kindhearted Mexican bandit, played by Richard Barthelmess, rescues the pair, and that is only the beginning of an epic story!) starring Richard Barthelmess, J. Wesley Warner, Eugenie Besserer, Carol Dempster, and Clarine Seymour. Note that the cinematographer on this movie was Billy Bitzer, who worked very closely with D.W. Griffith (they made 490 movies together!). Apparently, Griffith felt that Bitzer really deserved credit for his great contributions to Griffith's movies, and he is prominently billed on the title card (and maybe other posters that we have not seen), and he is billed as "G.W. Bitzer". It is very unusual for a cinematographer to have been billed on advertising for silent movies. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
