Flaming Waters is a 1925 American silent drama film directed by F. Harmon Weight and starring Malcolm McGregor, Pauline Garon, and Mary Carr.[1]

Plot

[edit]

As described in a film magazine review,[2] Danny O'Neil moves to Oil City with his mother, seeking to find Jasper Thorne, who swindled his mother. He gets the best of Thorne in an oil deal and buys a well that turns out to be a gusher, the spray from its overflow covering the area surrounding their ranch. A lamp thrown by Thorne ignites the oil. Danny's foolish friend Midge Botsford opens the gate on the reservoir, and a flaming flood results. Danny rescues his mother and Doris Laidlaw, and he wins the young woman's heart.
