Answers
Answer:
"A Retrieved Reformation" is a short story by American author O. Henry first published in The Cosmopolitan Magazine, April 1903.[1][2] The original title was "A Retrieved Reform". It was illustrated by A.I. Keller.
Explanation:
The story describes the events which lead up to the reformation of an ex-convict. In 1910, dramatist Paul Armstrong adapted the story into a highly successful Broadway play under the title Alias Jimmy Valentine which ran 155 performances at Wallack's Theatre in New York. The play was subsequently adapted for three film versions: one in 1915 directed by Maurice Tourneur and starring Robert Warwick; one in 1920 directed by Edmund Mortimer and starring Bert Lytell; and one in 1928 directed by Jack Conway and starring William Haines. The last was Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's first sound film with dialogue sequences. The popularity of the story as a motion picture added greatly to the author's vogue, though in the English, French, and Spanish versions O. Henry's name was not mentioned.[1] The character of Jimmy Valentine is taken from life but there is a close parallel to the leading incident in chapter XLII of Hugo's Les Misérables.[1]
The story was adapted into a radio series, Alias Jimmy Valentine, that was broadcast from 1938 to 1939.[3]
