The Stolen Play is a 1917 silent film directed by Harry Harvey from a script by the Horkheimer brothers for their Balboa Amusement Producing Company (aka Falcon Features). [1] [2] [3]
A blind playwright is engaged to his assistant, and the two are close to completion of a new play, which is so dark and morbid that they find themselves on the brink of breakdowns. A greedy agent who has admired the playwright's previous work will stop at nothing to secure the play for himself. [2]
