Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Linda is a 1929 film directed by Dorothy Davenport.Linda Stillwater is a young woman growing up in backwoods California logging country. Her father Stillwater is an ogreish brute, and her mother is beaten down by life, as well as by said ogreish brute. The only bright spot in Linda's life is Annette Whitmore, a do-gooder rich lady who travels to the backwoods to teach the children, and has taken an interest in Linda.Linda is instantly besotted with Dr. Paul Randall (Warner Baxter), whom she meets when he visits the country to see his own timber. However, her father, who is a scumbag, has promised her to Decker the mill supervisor. Linda eventually gets married to Decker, who, surprisingly, is a tender and affectionate husband. But Linda's heart still belongs to Dr. Randall.Davenport is credited as "Mrs. Wallace Reid", six years after her husband Wallace Reid died of opium addiction. Linda is a silent film, one of the last silent features made before Hollywood converted to talkies.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })

Abhorrent Admirer: Decker, whom Linda initially refuses to marry as he's old enough to be her father. She eventually goes through with it, and she grows to respect him as he's tender and affectionate with her, but she never loves him.

Discreet Drink Disposal: Decker pours his medicine out into a plant on the windowsill, because he's decided I Want My Beloved to Be Happy and he's willing to die to free Linda to be with Dr. Randall.
