Hush (1921)

Vera Stanford is married to the man she truly loves but she is unhappy. She thinks of a brief moment of passion when she wandered into the garden at a masquerade with Herbert Brooks and permitted herself to be overcome by the music, the night and the embraces of the man who was with her. Vera has a friend, Isabel Dane, and both women are intimately acquainted with an artist, Hugh Graham. Brooks, the man Vera now loathes, has married a wealthy woman in Vera's set, and they all meet at Bar Harbor. The sight of Brooks acts on Vera's conscience so strongly that she confesses her misdeed to her husband, but will not tell him the name of the man. Stanford makes the mistake of thinking that the artist is the guilty unknown. Here are complications and misunderstandings aplenty until the truth comes out and husband wife wipe the slate clean and start afresh. Moving Picture World 1921.
