The Beloved Impostor(1918)

The Beloved Impostor is a silent romantic comedy about a man hardened by tragedy. Dick Mentor's wife dies in a car crash while leaving him for another man, and the loss of their child soon after transforms him into a bitter woman-hater. When Betty, a flirtatious young woman, hears Dick is visiting, she makes a wager with her admirer Hugh: she can win the misogynist's heart. Betty's scheme involves posing as a charming twelve-year-old boy, and it works—Dick falls for the deception. But Betty finds herself genuinely falling for Dick in the process, and now fears revealing the truth about her masquerade.
