Arms and the Woman is a 1916 American silent drama film directed by George Fitzmaurice and starring Mary Nash, Lumsden Hare and H. Cooper Cliffe. It has been described as Edward G. Robinson's film debut,[1] but the AFI Catalog of Feature Films states this claim is made only in some sources, as well as the film's sets having been designed by art director Anton Grot. It was shot in Jersey City, New Jersey.[2]
