The Mountain Eagle (1926)
Overview
In the Kentucky hills, a schoolteacher becomes caught in a bitter feud between a widower, his crippled son, and a reclusive hermit. Accusations and jealousy drive her into hiding, leading to love and revenge. Directed by Alfred Hitchcock, this 1926 romantic drama is now considered lost and remains one of the BFI’s most sought-after missing films.
