Barbara Frietchie is a 1915 silent drama film directed by Herbert Blaché and starring Mary Miles Minter. It is based upon the 1899 play Barbara Frietchie by Clyde Fitch, which was in turn inspired by the John Greenleaf Whittier poem of the same name. As with many of Minter's movies, the film is thought to be a lost film.[1]
