The White Sister is a 1915 American silent film produced by Essanay Studios. It is based on the 1909 play, The White Sister, by F. Marion Crawford and Walter Hackett.[1] This film, directed by Fred E. Wright, stars Viola Allen, a prominent stage actress in her first movie. Allen had also created the role in the play and it was one of her biggest successes.[2][3] The survival status of The White Sister is classified as unknown,[2] which suggests that it is a lost film.
