It was directed by William Desmond Taylor and starred Kathlyn Williams and Wallace Reid.[1][2] It is not known whether the film currently survives,[1] and it may be a lost film.[3] The film was remade in 1924 by Universal with William Desmond starring. PlotAs described in a film magazine review,[4] after the death of her father leaves Stella Benton (Williams) without a home, she goes to live with her brother Charlie (Paget) in the timber regions. The roughness of her surroundings proves a burden to Stella, and when Jack Fife (Reid), who loves her, asks her to marry him, she accepts even through she does not love him. Jack tries to win his bride's love, but to no avail. Finally, she goes to the city to try and forget her unhappy married life.

She returns to the timber regions where she is happily received by her husband. Cast
ReceptionLike many American films of the time, Big Timber was subject to cuts by city and state film censorship boards. The Chicago Board of Censors required a cut in the scene involving the shooting of a man.[5] References1. ^1 Progressive Silent Film List: Big Timber at silentera.com 2. ^The American Film Institute Catalog Feature Films: 1911-20 by The American Film Institute, c.1988 3. ^The Library of Congress American Silent Feature Film Survival Catalog: Big Timber 4. ^{{cite journal |title=Reviews: Kathlyn Williams in Big Timber |journal=Exhibitors Herald |volume=5 |issue=3 |page=25 |publisher=Exhibitors Herald Company |location=New York City |date=14 July 1917 |url=https://archive.org/details/exhibitorsherald05exhi |accessdate=2014-11-07}} 5. ^{{cite journal |title=Official Cut-Outs by the Chicago Board of Censors |journal=Exhibitors Herald |volume=5 |issue=4 |page=33 |publisher=Exhibitors Herald Company |location=New York City |date=21 July 1917 |url=https://archive.org/details/exhibitorsherald05exhi |accessdate=2014-11-10}} External links
