Betsy Ross (film)

Betsy Ross is a surviving 1917 American silent historical film starring Alice Brady and produced and distributed by her father William A. Brady.

Like many American films of the time, Betsy Ross was subject to cuts by city and state film censorship boards. The Chicago Board of Censors required cuts of scenes of a sword thrust during the duel, killing of second man in duel, the two intertitles Scarlet woman and Dont you dare kill the Vernon nigger, the scene with a duel vision, and the actual firing of the squad at the execution.
