The Offenders is a 1921 American melodrama film directed by Fenwicke L. Holmes. Margery Wilson, the co-star, reportedly co-directed this and two other films between 1921 and 1924.

The film is frequently mis-dated, either as being released in 1922 or 1924. Contemporary documentation states that it was made in the summer of 1921 and released that November. It was filmed in the town of Randolph, Vermont, with various locals acting as extras. Little else is known about the film, which is suspected to be lost.

What is known is limited to the archives kept in the Chandler Theatre in Randolph (which showed the movie) and the newspaper records of the day. At that time, the newspaper in Randolph was The Herald and Times, which is now just The Herald.

Synopsis

After sustaining a head wound in combat, decorated World War II veteran Eddie Rice (John Payne) is treated at a San Francisco military hospital for a permanent form of amnesia. This leaves him with no knowledge of his life, family and friends prior to his enlistment, a void that the army intelligence unit was unable to fill as they couldn't find any information about him, other than the fact he enlisted in Los Angeles. Doctors tell him that no medical cure exists for his case, but that if he returns to Los Angeles he might run into people who know him and could help him fill in the blanks.
