The First Kiss is a 1928 American silent romantic drama film directed by Rowland V. Lee and starring Fay Wray and Gary Cooper.[1] Based on the short story Four Brothers by Tristram Tupper, the film is about a Chesapeake Bay fisherman who turns to pirating in order to be rich enough to marry a society girl.

The First Kiss was produced by Famous Players-Lasky and released by Paramount Pictures. Today it is considered to be a lost film.[2][3][4] Some filming took place on the Chesapeake Bay in Saint Michaels, Maryland.[3]
