Runaway Romany is a 1917 American silent drama film directed by George W. Lederer and starring Marion Davies, Joseph Kilgour, and Matt Moore.

Written by Davies herself, the film was given a three-month publicity campaign before its release. However critics felt that the film's dramatic storyline didn't showcase Davies as well as her Broadway comedy roles.[1]
