Down to Earth (1917)

A satire on the indoor sports of society versus the close-to-nature idea.

70 min · United States of America · Dir. John Emerson

A healthy outdoors-type follows the girl he loves to a resort for wealthy hypochondriacs. In order to prove to her and the other patients that their "illnesses" are all in their minds, he hatches a scheme to take them on a boat ride, then get them stranded in the wilderness, where he can show them that they can live without their pills, doctors and "cures".
