Clara Kimball Young was an established star of the silent era when, after a very public break-up with her former partner, Lewis J. Selznick, she starred in The Eyes of Youth with her new producer, Harry Garson. A first-rate production, starting with a fine script full of mystic overtones and featuring an excellent cast, The Eyes of Youth was a box office smash and possibly Young's best film.
