A Desperate Moment is a 1926 American silent drama film directed by Jack Dawn and starring Wanda Hawley, Theodore von Eltz, and Sheldon Lewis.[1]

Plot

As described in a film magazine review,[2] while on a yachting trip with her father, Virginia Dean falls in love with Captain John Reynolds. The schooner is seized by bandit stowaways, who kill several crewmembers, and then set the elder Peter Dean and the remaining crew adrift, but hold Virginia and John hostage. The vessel catches fire and burns to the waterline and is abandoned, the survivors reaching a tropical island. While the gangsters reform, their leader Blackie Slade incites the island's natives to attack the party. Blackie is slain and the others are rescued by a passing steamer. John and Virginia are then united.
