thanks Pizza!
Thank you
These early silent films are like a dream fantasy.
I’d seen at least one movie a year from 1916 to 2026 but now it’s from 1915 to 2026. Mary Pickford was lovely! I appreciate the comments on restoring the movie at the end. Thanks for uploading.
Much work went into the restoration of this 1915 Paramount film under the Jesse Lasky Famous Players monicker. Too bad the original intertitles are gone, but hooray for the rest. Mary would have been thrilled to see the restored film, and her many fans are today.
Beautiful print
This film requires patience. Remarkably little happens throughout, particularly the first third.
They thought this movie was lost until they found a copy in 2012. Amazing!
