A Broadway Scandal is a 1918 American silent comedy film directed by Joe De Grasse that features Lon Chaney[1] and Carmel Myers. It is not known whether the film currently survives and it may be lost.

Plot

As described in a film magazine,[2] Nenette Bisson (Myers), an adventurous French girl, is injured while automobiling and taken to the Kendall hospital, where she becomes infatuated with the young physician David Kendall (August). Kendall, believing all women frivolous, pays little attention to Nenette. War breaks out and Kendall goes to Europe to offer aid to the suffering. Nenette, disowned by her father who runs a small cafe in the Latin quarter of New York City after her name becomes involved in a Broadway scandal, becomes a stage favorite but her attempts to win her father's forgiveness are futile. One night, however, she surprises the cafe with her presence and her father is finally persuaded to forgive her. Kendall, home on furlough, seeks out Nenette at the cafe and, after much explanation, he too is forgiven.
