    This movie is one of my all-time favorites. I Loved Mary Pickford as an actress..and those curls ! 🙄 I've seen other movies she made but the ones she did after she cut her hair short just were not the same to me, though she remained a very good actress. But, about 'Pollyanna' .corny as it may seem Really did inspire me with her 'glad' philosophy. I took it with me for years + never forget it. 😊

    Pollyanna is beautiful story and very entertaining. The American sweetheart Mary Pickford was very famous movie star during the year 1910.

    besides beloved Mary Pickford I’m also a true fan of Lillian Gish n Dorothy Gish. but Mary always brings smiles on my face bc she’s funny.

    Got to do something about that “music”. I’m sure that’s not what was intended for it back then, sounds like a circus calliope. Had to turn off the sound.

      I was going to mention that too. There has to be a score somewhere for this film that the piano players used in the film. I shut the sound off. Too annoying.

    This was the first film she did after co founding United Artists with Charlie Chaplin, soon to be future husband Douglas Fairbanks, and DW Griffith. Don't let her looks fool you, she was one of the most powerful people in Hollywood

    Greta Garbo is hands down one of the best silent movie actresses, her expressions were priceless, you knew what she was feeling... and I may suggest watching The Shiek with Valentino, very risque for that time

    All these years later, it's still hard for me to watch this movie, knowing how badly Pickford treated Joan Crawford, especially given the fact that Pickford herself was a fairly sordid character in real life.
    Or as Mae Marsh put it, referring to Lillian Gish's performance in Intolerance, "If Pickford was rocking that cradle it would have been empty", alluding to Pickford's - ahem - "miscarriage". God forbid that an unwanted pregnancy would have prevented you from portraying youthful innocence on screen, isn't that right Miss Pickford?
    Yeah, you heard me right. Our Joanie may have slapped her kids around every now and then, , but she didn't turn her womb into a slaughterhouse.
    So who wants to play the glad game?

      You're naive if you don't think Crawford didn't have an abortion or two early in her career. Many up and coming actresses had abortions. Crawford, Davis, Stanwyck etc. Contraception devices were crude and rarely used.
