Synopsis by Hal Erickson
The always reliable Elsie Ferguson stars in Danger Mark. Made before the advent of nationwide Prohibition, the film is a hard-hitting indictment of the evils of alcohol. Ferguson plays a society girl whose life is ruined by her fondness for the grape. She manages to pull herself together in time to rescue her boy friend (Mahlon Hamilton) from likewise drinking himself into oblivion. It's a creaky tale, but Elsie Ferguson saves the proceedings with her subtle underplaying.
