What happens

One Touch of Nature è un cortometraggio muto del 1914 diretto da Ashley Miller. L'ispirazione per il soggetto (e il titolo) del film venne allo scrittore Courtney Ryley Cooper da un verso di William Shakespeare: "Un tocco di natura rende affine il mondo intero" ("One touch of nature makes the whole world kin", Troilo e Cressida, atto III, scena iii). Protagonisti del film sono John Sturgeon e il piccolo Andy Clark, al tempo tra i più attivi e prolifici attori del cinema muto americano. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
