What Do Men Want? (1921)

In this Lois Weber film, the confusion of male desires is humorously explored. Frank (J.

As their life unfolds, he yearns for children. However, after achieving wealth through his inventions, Frank becomes discontented and seeks companionship with another woman. His infatuation wanes when he discovers her questionable reputation, leading him to realize he truly wants to return to his wife.
