"Tom Sawyer" is a 1917 Paramount Pictures silent film starring Jack Pickford, Robert Gordon, and Clara Horton; it is based on Mark Twain's novel "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer".

This version contains its more homespun situations - the whitewashing episode, Tom's courtship of Becky Thatcher, his decision to run away with his pals Huck Finn and Joe Harper, and their "return from the dead" at their own funeral, however it leaves out the murder committed by Injun Joe and his death at Tom's hands.cite web | title = "Tom Sawyer" | url =http://www.starpulse.com/movie/Tom_Sawyer/V114022/0/2/ | accessdate = 2007-07-14 ]
