How it feels

A silent Western from 1917. A woman takes on a tough, gunslinging role as the heroine, which was unusual for female characters at the time. The story centers on her actions in a Western setting.

What happens

Golden Rule Kate is a 1917 American silent Western film starring Louise Glaum, William Conklin, Jack Richardson, Mildred Harris, and John Gilbert. It was directed by Reginald Barker from a story written by Monte M. Katterjohn and produced and distributed by the Triangle Film Corporation. The title role in this feature length western was a big departure for Glaum. One of the leading vamps of the mid 1910s—who played wicked dance hall girls in several westerns opposite William S. Hart—she stars here as the heroine, playing a female Bill Hart, with two pistols, before such roles were common among women. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
