The Cricket (1917)
Spurred on by her young actor friend Pascal, Cricket, a young girl, accepts the starring role in a juvenile play. Her smashing success is overshadowed, however, by her mother's death. Orphaned, Cricket grows to adulthood under the tutelage of her artist friends Saveline, Pinglet, and Caesar. Their idyllic family life ends when the three foster fathers decide that Cricket shall marry a banker's son, while she is determined to marry her old friend Pascal. Cricket leaves her foster fathers for Pascal and their estrangement endures several years, until the three men attend a stage performance given by Pascal and Cricket. An usher asks if they would take care of one of the actor's children and, recognizing Cricket's daughter, their old feelings of friendship are rekindled and a reconciliation occurs.
