Better Times is a 1919 American silent comedy film directed by King Vidor. A print survives in the EYE Institut Filmmuseum Nederlands. Produced by the Brentwood Corporation, the film stars the then unknown Zasu Pitts in an early screen appearance. The picture is the second of four Christian Science "preachment” films that represent a brief phase in Vidor’s output, championing the superiority of self-healing through moral strength, supplemented by the benefits of rural living.
