10:00am - AMAZING TALES FROM THE ARCHIVE

Joe Lindner of the Academy Film Archive, whose fascinating presentation on HER WILD OAT (1927) entertained last year's audience, will screen rare shorts and fragments that have recently been preserved at the Academy - including a trailer for a lost Constance Talmadge film, POLLY OF THE FOLLIES (1922), and a complete 1911 Edison short, HOW THE HUNGRY MAN WAS FED. He and Heather Olson of the Academy Film Archive will preview a major project to restore films from the Archives collection of 28mm safety film.

This special program will also include the premiere of the restored short SCREEN SNAPSHOTS: 7th SERIES, featuring wonderful behind-the-scenes footage of Ramon Navarro and Clara Bow, restored by our 2008 Fellowship recipient Anne Smatla. We will announce this years Fellowship recipient!
