'Annie Laurie' is a 1927 American silent romantic drama film directed by John S. Robertson, released by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, and starring Lillian Gish and Norman Kerry. It is about the battles of Scottish clans.

This was the third film of Lillian Gish at MGM, and its poor box office returns marked a decline in the star's career. On a down note Gish stated that her mother became ill during the production of this film and that "...she only showed up for work" as opposed to putting her all into the film.'Lillian Gish' by Stuart Odermann c.2000 John Wayne makes an early film appearance as a crowd extra.[http://www.silentera.com/PSFL/data/A/AnnieLaurie1927.html Progressive Silent Film List: 'Annie Laurie'] at silentera.com
