Nell's Eugenic Wedding is a lost 1914 silent comedy of one reel directed by Edward Dillon. It is a primitive example by Anita Loos of what is called in modern terms a gross-out film. Actor Tod Browning later achieved renown as a director. Most reviewers 'damned' the film as repugnant or tasteless.[1]
