A Woman's Secret is a British film from 1922 starring American acress Mae Marsh. In the film her character has an illegitimate child, who is murdered. That is probably why it was considered not sutible for children. Les Miserables is probably the Italian 1925 film version of that story. -- Bruce Photo from FEEL MY PULSE (1928) Photos from IF I WERE SINGLE (1927) Photos from QUALITY STREET (1927) More Information on the Plaisance Theatre...
