Discontent

About This Movie

"Discontent" is a 1916 drama directed by Universal Pictures. The film features a narrative about an old war veteran seeking a change of scenery from a veterans' home to his wealthy nephew's residence.

Discontent is a bit of an obscure title, likely due to its age and the challenge of finding well-preserved prints. Collectors often seek out this film for its poignant exploration of veteran life, uncommon in early cinema. It’s not the easiest to track down, especially in original format, which adds a layer of appeal for those who enjoy the rarer gems of silent film history.
