Redemption is a 1930 American Pre-Code drama film directed by Fred Niblo, produced and distributed by MGM, and starring John Gilbert.

This film was actually Gilbert's first talking film but was released after the now infamous His Glorious Night, which garnered disastrous reviews. The film was based on a stage play, Redemption, adapted by Arthur Hopkins (who had seen the play in Europe) from the novel The Living Corpse by Leo Tolstoy. Hopkins produced the play in 1918 with the lead none other than John Barrymore in a winning and successful stage interpretation.

Not long after the death of his first wife, Walter Fairchild becomes engaged to Florence Wendell. Florence ignores the warnings of Gilbert Gaylord, who is also interested in marrying her, that she doesn't know what she is getting herself into; that no woman will ever be able to fill the void in Fairchild's life left by the death of his wife. After they are married, Fairchild and Florence have some contention as she buys into the warnings given her by Gaylord. To appease her, they move out of the house he shared with his first wife, and allows her to furnish the new home. Sensing that he and his new wife need some time alone together to start their new lives, he sends his seven-year-old son, Walter Jr., to a boarding school in Switzerland. After Florence becomes pregnant, Fairchild is notified that is son is very ill, and will most likely not recover. Despite Florence's pleas for him not to leave her, he travels to his son's side. As he leaves, Florence tells him not to return.
