“Tiger Rose” is a 1923 American silent adventure-romance film directed by Sidney Franklin, based on Willard Mack’s 1917 Broadway play. Set in the rugged Canadian Northwest, the story follows Rose Bocion, an orphan raised at a remote trading post. After falling in love with Bruce Norton, Rose becomes entangled in a dramatic tale of betrayal and justice. Norton kills a man responsible for his family's ruin and goes on the run, aided by Rose and a mysterious doctor with secrets of his own. As the Royal Northwest Mounted Police close in, Rose must summon courage and loyalty to protect the man she loves.<br /><br />The film is notable for its sweeping wilderness cinematography, emotional intensity, and Lenore Ulric’s reprisal of her acclaimed stage role. It was a box office success for Warner Bros. and remains a surviving example of early 1920s melodrama.<br /><br />**Credential**<br />Directed by Sidney Franklin<br />Produced by David Belasco<br />Starring Lenore Ulric, Forrest Stanley, Theodore von Eltz, Sam De Grasse<br />Screenplay by Edmund Goulding, Millard Webb, based on the play by “Willard Mack”<br />Cinematography by Charles Rosher<br /><br />This film blends romance and suspense against the backdrop of the Canadian frontier, showcasing early Hollywood’s flair for theatrical storytelling.<br /><br />#TigerRose1923 #SilentCinema #ClassicHollywood #AdventureRomance #SidneyFranklin #LenoreUlric
