The Clown

1

Joe Higgins played by

Mr. Valdemar Psilander.

Daisy played by

Mrs. Gudrun Houlberg.

Circus is in town.

Joe the clown is good friends with

Daisy, the circus owner's daughter.

Afternoon joy in

the performers camp.

That night.

The famous theater impresario, Wilson, is making a stop

in town from his excursion and pays the circus a visit.

The song of Pjerrot's love.

He has talent. I'll make

him world famous!

I'll accept your offer on one condition:

That I can bring these three people with me!

Two years later.

Daisy and Joe are now married.

Joe's dressing room at the music hall.

Count Henri.

The song, that helped Joe

conquer the whole world.

The contract for one more year!

Forgive me Joe! I never

meant to hurt you!

Daisy, do you love him?

Then there's but one thing to do;

Go be with him!

At Count Henri's...

I've come to stay with you!

Next morning.

No, don't go after her! Let her stay

where she has chosen to be.

If I ever see her again, I will.

One year later. Count Henri's feelings for Daisy have grown cold, and

when she realized his true being, she deeply regrets leaving her husbond.

So, this is how I meet you again.

In a crowd like this!?

How dare you show up here?

The same night an unconscious

woman was brought to the hospital.

Noon next day.

Last night, a woman wearing fur and dress, tried to commit suicide by drowning in the canal. She was

saved by some people passing by at the very last minute, and brought unconsciously to the hospital.

She was here?

I have a message from your wife, who

wishes to speak with you before she dies.

Forgive me Joe!

It was always you I loved!

I ever meet that man, I'll kill him.

I swear by your name!

Many years later: The old Bundings passed away long

ago, and Joe is back performing with a touring circus.

Every once in a while, Joe remembers and

relives the happiest moments of his life.

This is your punishment

for betraying her!

Daisy, please let me join you!

A stroke put an end

to Joe's life -
