About The Dangerous Maid
Barbara Winslow helps her rebel brother, Rupert, escape from the king's forces by disguising herself as him. Captain Prothero captures her, but he has fallen for Barbara's charms so he lets her go. As a result they are both arrested and imprisoned.
Directed by Victor Heerman, The Dangerous Maid leans on a strong ensemble — Constance Talmadge, Conway Tearle, Morgan Wallace — 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.
