We have included this film in our program to illustrate the work and contributions of our star Helen Holmes.

 

"When Rogues Fall Out" is a short action film released at the end of 1915. By that time Helen Holmes had left "The Hazards of Helen" and Kalem to make an independent career. She continued working together with director and husband J.P. McGowan, and she also kept her love for railroad adventures.

We are showing you a very short surviving clip of the film, in which Helen Holmes has to deal with a life-threatening situation.
