The Misleading Widow (1919) is a silent film comedy directed by John S. Robertson and starring Billie Burke. The film is based on the play Billeted by F. Tennyson Jesse and H. M. Harwood and was produced by Famous Players–Lasky and distributed by Paramount Pictures.[1]

As it is not known whether the film currently survives,[2] it is likely that it, similar to most of Burke's silent films, is a lost film.[3]
