After the Ball is a 1924 American silent drama film directed by Dallas M. Fitzgerald and starring Gaston Glass, Miriam Cooper, and Edna Murphy.[1]

Plot

As described in a film magazine review,[2] Arthur Trevelyan, the dissolute son of Mark Trevelyan, is put out of his home when he marries a young woman of whom his father disapproves. Through the press of circumstances, Arthur is forced to exchange clothes with a crook, who is later shot. The newspapers report that it is Arthur who was killed, and the real Arthur is jailed for the crime. After some time he escapes and finds that he is the father of a five year old child. The real culprit confesses to the crime, and Arthur is exonerated.
