The Road to Mandalay is a 1926 American silent drama film directed by Tod Browning and starring Lon Chaney. Originally a 7 reel feature, the film was considered lost until an abridged version, of about 33 minutes, with French intertitles surfaced in Paris. This poor quality French abridgement is all that survives of The Road to Mandalay.[1][2]
