Dangerous Hours
''Dangerous Hours'' is a 1919 American silent drama film directed by Fred Niblo. Prints of the film survive in the UCLA Film and Television Archive.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Progressive Silent Film List: ''Dangerous Hours'' )〕 It premiered in February 1920.〔Hanson, 187〕
The film was based on a short story "A Prodigal in Utopia" published in the ''Saturday Evening Post''. The film's working title was ''Americanism (Versus Bolshevism)'', which was the title of a pamphlet published by Ole Hanson, the mayor of Seattle who claimed to have broken the Seattle General Strike in 1919.
==Plot==
The film tells the story of an attempted Russian infiltration of American industry, and includes a depiction of the "nationalization of women" under Bolshevism, including "extras on horseback, rounding up women, throwing them into dungeons and beating them."〔Brownlow, 260〕
College graduate John King (Hughes) is sympathetic to the left in a general way. Then he is seduced, both romantically and politically, by Sophia Guerni (Du Brey), a female agitator. Her superior is the Bolshevik Boris Blotchi (Richardson), who has a "wild dream of planting the scarlet seed of terrorism in American soil."〔Brownlow, 263〕 Sofia and Boris turn their attention to the Weston shipyards that are managed by John's childhood sweetheart. The workers have valid grievances, but the Bolsheviks set out to manipulate the situation. They are "the dangerous element following in the wake of labor as riffraff and ghouls follow an army."〔 When they threaten John's earlier love, he has an epiphany and renounces revolutionary doctrine.〔
