Don't Weaken! (S)
1920 · Movie · 22 min. · United States
Former saloon owner Frank Reilly has recently become part of the nouveau riche, but is having a hard time shedding his working class past and manners. So he decides to throw a party for the upper class primarily to show off the dancing talents of his daughter, taught by Professor Yonson of Paris, he who has no respect for the other dancing teachers at the dancing school where he teaches. One of those teachers, angry at Professor Yonson letting him go, decides to crash the party masquerading as the visiting Prince of Siberia. A boxing ring set up at the party leads to some hijinks between the men, some who aren't who they appear on the surface.
