Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Viola Dana, Metro Studios' favorite leading lady, stars in A Girl Without a Soul. Dana essays a dual role as twin sisters who not unexpectedly are as different as night and day. Priscilla, an aspiring artist, is ruined by scurrilous Russian musician Ivor (Fred Jones). Meanwhile, Priscilla's sister Unity settles down for a wholesome small-town existence with village smithy Hiram Miller (Robert Walker). Ultimately, Unity's husband is blamed for a crime committed by the craven Priscilla. Girl Without a Soul was directed by Viola Dana's talented husband John H. Collins, whose promising career was tragically cut short by the Influenza epidemic of 1918.
