Mary Pickford film thought to be lost discovered by carpenter in barn

Mary Pickford made more than 200 movies, but her 1911 film "Their First Misunderstandings" was thought to have been lost long ago. It was discovered by a carpenter in an old New Hampshire barn and donated to Keene State College. Anthony Mason reports.

It's a huge miracle the film was in usable condition, because they used nitrate film at the time.

Muy buena noticia. Ojalá se encuentren más películas, especialmente las de Murnau.

Nitrates are very difficult to preserve.
