In fifteenth century Paris, the brother of the archdeacon plots with the gypsy king to foment a peasant revolt. Meanwhile, a freakish hunchback falls in love with the gypsy queen.

The Hunchback of Notre Dame -- Lon Chaney stars as an anguished and ugly outcast, this time donning a 50-pound hairy hump to become Quasimodo-the hunchback with a heart of gold in the film version of Victor Hugo's The Hunchback of Notre Dame. Filmed at the height of the silent film era, The Hunchback of Notre Dame is a spectacular production with gargantuan sets, lavish costumes, and brilliant performances.

This classic film vaulted Lon Chaney into stardom for his portrayal of Quasimodo, the hunchbacked bell ringer living in the bell towers of Notre Dame. Quasimodo's devotion to Esmeralda (Patsy Ruth Miller), due to her act of kindness, places both of them in great peril from Jehan (Brandon Hurst), the evil brother of the church's archdeacon.

A lonely husband, whose wife has been away, hires a look-a-like impersonator to fill his place and fool his mother-in-law while he plays around with a pretty coquette. His wife returns that night and confusion prevails.
