Salvation Nell is a 1931 film drama produced and directed by James Cruze and distributed by Tiffany Films, a company then on the brink of ceasing operations. It is based on Edward Sheldon's 1908 Broadway play which starred Minnie Maddern Fiske. Two silent versions were produced ie, in 1915 with Beatriz Michelena and in 1921 with Pauline Starke. Ralph Graves and Helen Chandler star in this film. Actor Matthew Betz appeared in both this film and the 1921 silent film. Despite the contrary said on IMDb, this is apparently not a lost film.[1] [2]
