About The Sunshine Trail
When good-natured James Henry MacTavish comes into an inheritance, he travels East to claim it with the determination that he will "scatter sunshine" along the way. But MacTavish almost immediately lands himself in hot water.
Directed by James W. Horne, The Sunshine Trail leans on a strong ensemble — Douglas MacLean, Edith Roberts, Muriel Frances Dana — 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 1923.
