What happens

Lady Audley's Secret is a 1915 American silent drama film directed by Marshall Farnum and starring Theda Bara, Riley Hatch and Clifford Bruce. It was an adaptation of the 1862 British novel Lady Audley's Secret by Mary Elizabeth Braddon. It is now considered a lost film. The film was less successful than Bara's other films of the period, because it did not feature her in the wildly popular vamp role she had established. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
