Her Silent Sacrifice is a 1917 American silent film romantic drama directed by Edward José and starring Alice Brady.
Plot Summary
In the quaint French village of Savenay, Arlette resides with her grandfather Chaupin, who owns the local inn. Richard Vale, a struggling young American painter, arrives in the village to create art and takes up residence at Chaupin's establishment. During his stay, he persuades Arlette to model for him, and she finds herself falling deeply in love with the financially-strapped artist.
When the affluent but licentious art aficionado Prince Boissard visits Savenay and becomes infatuated with Arlette, he offers Richard financial support in exchange for Arlette becoming his mistress. Arlette consents, and Boissard, pretending to be captivated by Richard's artistic talent, sponsors his trip to Italy for further studies.
A year elapses, and Richard comes back to Savenay, now an acclaimed artist. Boissard expects Arlette to fulfill her end of the bargain. Reluctantly, she agrees, but before anything can happen, Boissard's loyal servant Sarthe intervenes. Devoted to Arlette, Sarthe takes drastic action and stabs his master, effectively liberating Arlette and allowing her to marry the man she truly loves, Richard.
