Plot Synopsis

The Mountain Eagle

The Mountain Eagle, released in 1926 in England and also presented in the United States as Fear O’ God. All that remains from this film are a half-dozen photographs. The nitrate print has long been the victim of decomposition. The Mountain Eagle concerns the manager of a store who fancies a young schoolteacher. She runs to the mountains, where she is rescued by a hermit, who finally marries her. Shot in the studio and on location in the Tyrol, the picture starred Nita Naldi, supposedly the new Theda Bara.
