''The Next Corner'' was a 1924 American silent romantic melodrama directed by Sam Wood. The film starred Dorothy Mackaill and Lon Chaney. Based on the romance novel of the same name by Kate Jordan, the film was produced by Famous Players-Lasky and distributed by Paramount Pictures. ''The Next Corner'' is presumed lost.〔(The Next Corner at the silentera.com database )〕〔(The Library of Congress American Silent Feature Film Survival Catalog: ''The Next Corner'' )〕 Throughout the years, the film has been cited as a Chaney picture but, according to the ''American Film Institute Catalog'', his character has little screen time. In fact, of all Chaney's feature films of the 1920s, this picture seems to have less of him on screen than any other feature he made. The leading character is portrayed by Dorothy Mackaill, then an up-and-coming young star. This film was Chaney's only Paramount film of the 1920s, the last having been ''Treasure Island'', and was one of the last films he appeared in as a freelance artist before signing a multiple picture deal with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.〔(The AFI Catalog of Feature Films:''The Next Corner'' )〕 The novel was refilmed in sound in 1931 at RKO as ''Transgression'' starring Kay Francis, Nance O'Neil with Ricardo Cortez returning to the same role. ==Cast== *Conway Tearle - Robert Maury *Lon Chaney - Juan Serafin *Dorothy Mackaill - Elsie Maury *Ricardo Cortez - Don Arturo *Louise Dresser - Nina Race *Remea Radzina - Countess Longueval *Dorothy Cumming - Paula Vrain *Bertha Feducha - Julie, Elsie's Maid *Bernard Siegel - The Stranger 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Next Corner」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
