The County Fair (1920)
Directed by Maurice Tourneur
Overview
“The County Fair” begins with a nasty rich guy threatening to turn an old lady onto the street—unless her niece (who lives with her) marries this man’s son. While she’s dead set against it, the niece is a sweet thing and would do anything to help her aunt—even marry the rich jerk. However, a possible way out is presented. When a poor young man is taken in and fed, he turns out (naturally) to be a jockey and thinks he can win the $3000 prize at the fair and save the farm.
