The Greatest Film Ending of All Time

Wow... haven't seen that particuar one, but I was going to nominate a similar silent film starring Lon Chaney - can't remember the film's name, but he plays a thief who pretends to be an armless knife throwing sideshow act, falls in love with a girl who is afraid to be held by a man. He loves her so much, in fact, that he goes to a surgeon to get his arms actually removed lest she discover his ruse, and while he's recovering she gets over it and falls in love with the man she was afraid to be held by. He gives her up and has to live the rest of his life w/out arms.
