Mike is a 1926 American silent comedy drama film directed by Marshall Neilan. The film is a modest production, featuring Sally O'Neil and William Haines.[1]

Plot

As described in a film magazine review,[2] "Mike," a young woman, lives with her two brothers, sister, and father in an old frieght car on a railroad siding in the desert. She enlists the aid of a circus manager from a nearby town to cure her father and his pal of drinking. Both swear off alcohol after seeing a vision of colored elephants and other beasts. Mike learns of a plot to hold up the Limited train. She and the children narrowly escape death when their frieght car is sent wildly down grade. She tells her sweetheart Harlan, a telegraphist, of the bandits' scheme. The authorities are notified and the outlaws are captured.
