Not a lost film

This supposedly "lost film" is definitely not lost, although sources say only a partial nitrate print exists in the UCLA archives. Charles "Buddy" Rogers stars as a young American in London. Once a millionaire, he's lost everything due to losing his racehorse and the efforts of a gangster. Working as a waiter, he falls for a lovely young girl who's aunt wants her to marry wealth (as they are down to "enough for just one more season"). Then it's boy chases girl as he tries to get a riding job for the big cross country race. The film also benefits from a nice performance by Frances Dee, a lovely actress who graced some early Paramount treasures. Bob Connors

Trivia
An incomplete nitrate print of this film (Reels 1-4 of 5 Reels, Reel 5 discarded due to nitrate deterioration) survives in the UCLA Film and Television Archives, and is not listed for preservation and therefore may be a lost film if another copy doesn't survive elsewhere, or the UCLA doesn't preserve it soon.
