What happens
The Mask of Love is a 1914 American short silent crime film (released in 1917), directed by Joe De Grasse and starring Lon Chaney and Pauline Bush. The film is considered lost. Chaney biographer Jon C. Mirsalis states: "As is the case for Accusing Evidence (1916), it is highly unlikely that (The Mask of Love) was shot in 1917. It may be a reissue of an earlier film when Bush and Chaney were working together, although no other film's synopsis matches this very closely. It could also have been assembled from footage leftover from The Menace to Carlotta (1914), or it may have just been shot previously circa 1914 and never released." Pauline Bush was no longer working at Universal in 1917. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
