The Family Upstairs

Directed by John G. Blystone
1926    60mComedy, Drama
Louise, a quiet and refined girl, is taunted by her mother, brother, and sister because she has no sweetheart. Finally a bank teller, Charles Grant, falls in love with her and insists upon visiting her family in their apartment. Mrs. Heller drives him away by her talk of the luxury to which her daughter is accustomed, and when he departs Louise accuses her family of spoiling her one chance for romance. Impulsively, she takes a taxi to Coney Island to lose herself in the crowds but is followed by Charles, who has seen through the family's pretense. There she meets two boys who work in her office; and when Charles tries to talk to her, they resent his interference, assuming him to be a masher. Charles is struck down by her companions, but as a result Louise and Charles are happily reconciled.
