"The Knickerbocker Buckaroo" is a 1919 silent Western directed by Albert Parker and starring Douglas Fairbanks, who also wrote and produced the film. Fairbanks plays a hedonistic New York City aristocrat who tries to change his selfish ways by heading to Sonora, Texas to carry out a campaign of altruism. Along the way, he is mistaken for a Mexican bandit and is pursued by a corrupt sheriff who is in pursuit of the bandit's hidden fortune. [Thompson, Frank.

After this production, he worked exclusively at United Artists, a company he co-founded in 1919 with Mary Pickford, Charles Chaplin and D.W. Griffith.
