King Vidor directed
Three Wise Fools. I like the armored car.
The Spoilers was based on a novel by Rex Beach. It was set during the Alaska Gold Rush. It was filmed many times, and the highlight was always knock-down drag-out fight between Glennister and McNamara.

I don't know a thing about
Enemies of Women except that it was based on a novel by Vicente Blasco Ibáñez, directed by Alan Crosland and starred Lionel Barrymore.
6 Days was based on another smutty book by Elinor Glyn. Someday I will write about a joke people made about her titles.
