The Scarlet Letter is a 1926 American drama film directed by Victor Sjöström. Louis B. Mayer was reluctant on using Miss Gish, fearing opposition from church groups. The film was announced as "It's a real 'A' picture", taking advantage of the 'A' for Adultery, and proved a box office failure. Prints of the film survive in the MGM/United Artists film archives and the UCLA Film and Television Archive.
