Biographie

Julia Crawford (épouse d'Oliver Ivers en secondes noces) est considérée comme une pionnière du cinéma américain, auquel elle contribue exclusivement durant la période du cinéma muet, de 1915 à 1927, notamment au sein de la Famous Players-Lasky Corporation.

On lui doit 50 films comme scénariste (1915-1927), cinq films comme productrice (1917) et quatre films comme réalisatrice (1916-1923). Son deuxième film à la réalisation est The Heart of Paula (1916, avec Forrest Stanley et Lenore Ulrich), coréalisé par William Desmond Taylor, qu'elle retrouve souvent en tant que scénariste (ex. : Tom Sawyer en 1917 et The Soul of Youth en 1920), jusqu'à la mort tragique de ce dernier en 1922. Le quatrième et dernier film qu'elle réalise est The White Flower (1923, avec Betty Compson et Edmund Lowe).

Elle est la mère de James Van Trees (1890-1973, né d'un premier mariage avec Franklin S. Van Trees), directeur de la photographie — notamment sur The Heart of Paula et The White Flower pré-cités —.

As described in a film publication, Huckleberry Finn (Sargent) has been adopted by the Widow Douglas (K. Griffith) who plans to "civilize" him. With Tom Sawyer (G. Griffith) he forms a robber gang, and in a cave has the local boys take an oath to stick together. In his bedroom he runs into his no-account father (Lanning) who steals Huck's small change and later kidnaps Huck, taking him in a small boat down the river, while Tom and the gang wait for their leader to appear. Huck later escapes from a cabin where his father mistreated him, making it look as if he drowned while getting away in a canoe. Rumors of Huck's death spreads. Jim (Reed), the widow's slave boy, hears that he is to be sold and runs off, and joins Huck on a raft. Duke (Humphrey) and King (Bates), two broken-down actors fleeing a crowd they had fooled with a mock theatrical performance, join them. At the next town the actors again fool the people with a pretend theatrical performance with Huck acting as the doorkeeper. Further downstream the actors then impersonate the brothers of a deceased man named Wilks in an attempt to obtain the inheritance, but Huck takes the money to keep it from the actors after he is smitten by the daughter, Mary Jane Wilks (Ralston). Huck and Jim leave to escape the wrath of their former companions just as the actual relatives of the dead man show up. After peace is made when King and Duke rejoin the group, a shabby trick is performed when King sells Jim to a man named Phelps and then tells Huck that Jim has been lost. Upon learning the truth, Huck sets out to rescue his friend. He discovers that Mrs. Phelps (Moore) is the sister of Tom's Aunt Polly. Huck poses as the nephew Tom, whom Mrs. Phelps has never met. Then the real Tom arrives, who is surprised as he believed that Huck had died. After exchanging signals, Tom poses as his brother Sid and they go through with a plan. In a struggle to get Jim away, Tom is shot in the leg. Jim escapes, and while the two youngsters are congratulating themselves at Tom's sickbed, Aunt Polly arrives and says that Jim had been freed a month earlier. She informs the Phelps of Huck's actual identity and takes him back, cured of his wandering, to the Widow Douglas.
