About The Flash of an Emerald
The picture starts with Robert Warwick walking into the office of director Albert Capellani (the film's actual director). Capellani offers him the role of a heavy and hands him the script. The next four reels show Warwick playing a Raffles-like character, an ingenious crook who moves through society, committing robberies and even murder.
Directed by Albert Capellani, The Flash of an Emerald leans on a strong ensemble — Robert Warwick, Clarissa Selwynne, June Elvidge — 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 drama titles of 1915.
