The Black Pearl (1928 Film)
''The Black Pearl'' is a 1928 American silent mystery film directed by Scott Pembroke and starring Lila Lee, Ray Hallor and Carl Stockdale. It is based on a 1912 novel titled ''The Black Pearl'' by Nancy Mann Waddel Woodrow, with a plot very similar to that of Wilkie Collins' 1868 novel ''The Moonstone''. Both novels involved a mystery around a jewel stolen from an Indian idol that carries a horrible curse. Reviews from the time suggest this "old dark house" mystery had less humor and more suspense than most, but the film is today considered lost, so it all remains conjecture. Actress Lila Lee went on to star in the 1930 sound remake of ''The Unholy Three'', starring Lon Chaney. Carl Stockdale, who plays the detective/hero of the film, had a long and varied career, appearing in ''The Vampire Bat'' (1933), ''Mad Love'' (1935) and ''Revenge of the Zombies'' (1936), among many other films.Workman, Christopher; Howarth, Troy (2016).
