About Astray from the Steerage
While an immigrant couple are detained by authorities to see if they're fit, a smuggler tries to sneak a bottle into their luggage, but he accidentally gets trapped inside, and gets sent to the house where the new Americans will work.
Directed by Frank Powell, Astray from the Steerage leans on a strong ensemble — Billy Bevan, Louise Fazenda, Don Marion — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1921.
