Snowblind (film)

Snowblind is a 1921 American silent drama film directed by Erich von Stroheim (though uncredited) and starring Madsen Goodridge and Zasu Pitts. It is considered a lost film.

The film's storyline reportedly revolved around a young woman who, after being abandoned by her husband in the Alaskan wilderness, struggles to survive the harsh elements and the dangers of the environment. Details regarding the plot are scarce due to the film's lost status and incomplete historical records. Von Stroheim's involvement is debated and largely based on anecdotal evidence and similarities in thematic elements to his other works, rather than concrete documentation. Some film historians suggest his influence may have been significant even if not officially credited, while others remain skeptical.

The lack of surviving prints or detailed production notes makes it difficult to definitively ascertain the film's narrative, stylistic characteristics, and overall significance within the broader context of early American cinema.
