PRECEDED BY
The Son’s Return (D. W. Griffith, US, 1909).
In an early role, Pickford plays the sweetheart of a young man whose reunion with his parents takes a surprising turn. (11 mins, Silent, B&W, DCP. Preservation funded by the Packard Humanities Institute, the Mary Pickford Foundation, and the Museum of Modern Art.)
A Manly Man (a.k.a. His Gratitude) (Thomas H. Ince, US, 1911).
Pickford portrays a Filipina in love with an American man in this rare short shot in Cuba. (c. 12 mins, Silent, B&W/tinted, 35mm. Preservation funded by the American Film Institute/National Endowment for the Arts Film Preservation Grants Program and the Packard Humanities Institute.)
***
“We Are All One Big Family,” goes the generous motto of Merrill’s department store. But what if the owner’s son, disguised as a humble trainee, falls for a shopgirl whose family lives in a ramshackle cottage worlds away from the Merrills’ palatial manse? Such is the dilemma of this charming Cinderella comedy that pits ostentatious wealth against vulgar poverty and finds that love conquers both. The romance benefits from a crackling chemistry between Mary Pickford (in her last silent film role) and her costar, Charles “Buddy” Rogers, who later became her third husband.
