Strangling Threads


Strangling Threads is a 1923 British silent drama film directed by Cecil M. Hepworth and starring Alma Taylor, Campbell Gullan and James Carew.

Plot

A millionaire is being blackmailed by his Mexican wife. He strangles her, and believes he has killed her. However, she actually died of shock.

Cast

Distributed by Ideal, the film was released in British cinemas in August 1923.
It is believed to have been destroyed in 1924 along with most of Hepworth's other films. The producer, in serious financial difficulty, thought that this would at least allow him to recover the silver from the nitrate in the films.
