What happens

Yes or No? is a 1920 American silent drama film directed by Roy William Neill and starring Norma Talmadge in a dual role. It is based on the 1917 Broadway play Yes or No by Arthur Goodrich. Talmadge and Joe Schenck produced the picture and released it through First National Exhibitors. It is preserved at the Library of Congress Packard Campus for Audio-Visual Conservation. Despite the title as displayed on the film's theatrical poster including a question mark, the film is very often referred to as Yes or No. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
