Looking for a film with a "secret" scene

Post by irishguy1 » Thu Oct 07, 2021 10:01 am

I'm on the hunt for a silent film that features a scene of someone telling a secret. Like someone speaking into another person's ear or holding their finger in front of their mouth like a Shhhh gesture. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. 🤫

The ending of The New York Hat has Mary Pickford and Lionel Barrymore whispering to each other near her hard-of-hearing Dad.

There’s a similar whispering towards the end of Douglas Fairbanks’ Robin Hood, where Robin and Marion quickly discuss getting married.
