Money Mad (1908)

Directed by D.W. Griffith

Overview

The central figure is an old miser, a Harpagon of sorts, who, like Frosine, stashes his ill-gotten money in a secret cellar. While the miser is at the bank, exchanging stolen notes for gold coin, a couple of thugs witness the transaction and see their opportunity—It seems avarice grips the hearts of all those who’d possess the bag.
