Blue Jeans is a 1917 American silent feature film, based on the 1890 melodramatic play by Joseph Arthur that opened in New York City to great popularity. The sensation of the play was a dramatic scene where the unconscious hero is placed on a board approaching a huge buzz saw in a sawmill, later imitated to the point of cliche.
