The Tiger Lily (1919)
In New York City, Luigi's Little Italy inn attracts a steady clientele because of the owner's personable niece, Carmina, known as "The Tiger Lily," who never hesitates to rebuke her ill-mannered admirers. Giovanni, who has arrived from Italy to kill the man who married his brother's fiancée, falls in love with Carmina. However, he soon learns that Carmina is attracted to David Remington, the son of the Luigi's landlord, and offers money for her hand in marriage. Carmina escapes and David invites her to his family home, unaware that his mother was engaged to Giovanni's brother. Mrs. Remington warns David against marrying beneath him, but comes to admire Carmina after witnessing her interactions with members of high society. Regardless, Carmina is asked to leave, then discovers that Giovanni plans to kill David's parents. She notifies the police, and after an ensuing fight, Giovanni is subdued. The Remingtons now accept Carmina as their future daughter-in-law.
