Half-Breed, The (1916) -- (Movie Clip) L'Eau Dormante Confirmed in the prologue as the orphan of a despicable northern Californian and a scorned Indian mother, producer and star Douglas Fairbanks appears in a loincloth in the title role, and learns of the cruel ways of the white man, in The Half-Breed, 1916, from a Bret Harte story.

Half-Breed, The (1916) -- (Movie Clip) My Father Was A White Man! Welcomed at first into a California town, “Lo Dorman” (Douglas Fairbanks), as he’s known to Indian brethren, is separated from Nellie (Jewel Carmen) by her pastor father (Frank Brownlee) then encounters the crooked sheriff (Sam De Grasse), neither knowing of their kinship, in The Half-Breed, 1916.
