Coincidence (1921 film)
''Coincidence'' is a 1921 American silent comedy film starring Robert Harron and June Walker. It was Harron's first starring role after signing a deal with Metro Pictures Corporation, as well as his last film; Harron died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound in September 1920 between completion of filming and the release. It was directed by Chester "Chet" Withey and written by Brian Hooker based on a story by Howard E. Morton. The cinematographer was Louis C. Bitzer.
According to film historian Anthony Slide, "With Robert Harron's death, the film industry for the first time had to deal with the release of a film whose star had just died under mysterious circumstances." The film was released in 1921, the year following Harron's death. Instead of promoting ''Coincidence'' as Harron's final film, Metro chose not to associate it with Harron's death and had a "low key" release.〔
