The Joyous Trouble-Makers is a 1920 American silent Western adventure comedy film based on the 1918 novel The Joyous Trouble Maker by Jackson Gregory. It was directed by J. Gordon Edwards, and produced by William Fox. The film starred William Farnum, Louise Lovely and Henry Herbert.
Plot The film follows a rich young businessman named William Steele who buys his favorite vacation resort. The sale is immediately contested by Beatrice, who believes the property is part of her land. Beatrice challenges William to build a cabin on the property, promising him a home-cooked dinner if he succeeds.
The conflict is complicated when Beatrice is abducted by a third party, and William comes to her rescue. The two discover they have fallen in love, and rather than settling the bet, they combine their lands by getting married.
