2:40pm - A KISS FROM MARY PICKFORD (1927)
Co-Presented The San Francisco Film Society
Movie stardom gets a gleeful once-over in this madcap slapstick farce from Russia. Goga is a brash young ticket-taker smitten by aspiring actress Dusia, but she only has eyes for movie idols like Douglas Fairbanks. Goga decides to become a famous screen star himself, starting with a stunt man job at a movie studio. But when Douglas Fairbanks and Mary Pickford arrive on a promotional tour, (with rare footage of the Hollywood couple which only exists in this film!) Goga gets all the fame he could ever want - at his own peril!
Live translation of Ukranian intertitles read by Steven Jenkins from San Francisco Film Society.
Live piano accompaniment byPHILIP CARLI
Written & Directed by Sergei Komarov Starring: Mary Pickford, Douglas Fairbanks, Igor Ilinsky and Anel Sudakevich 35mm Print Source: The Mary Pickford Institute
Preceded by short, Alice Guy Blanche's MATRIMONY'S SPEED LIMIT (1913)
