Movies - The Cheat


The Cheat is a 1915 film about a woman who steals charity money in order to invest it in stocks. When she loses the money, she turns to a wealthy Japanese man for help, and he takes possession of her body as collateral.

The Cheat stars Fannie Ward
, Jack Dean, Sessue Hayakawa
, and Tallulah Bankhead
, and was written by Jeanie MacPherson and Hector Turnbull, and directed by Cecil B. DeMille.

Some believe that the film perpetuates negative stereotypes about Asian Americans, as evidenced by the domineering and sinister character traits of the Asian man whom the woman goes to for help.

The film has been selected for preservation in the U.S. National Film Registry
.
