The Navigator Buster Keaton stars as Rollo Treadway, an inexperienced lad of extraordinary wealth -- and surprisingly little common sense -- who finds himself adrift on "The Navigator" with no one else on board except an equally naïve girl. After discovering each other's presence in an ingenious ballet of unintentional hide-and-seek, the couple resourcefully fashion a home for themselves aboard the derelict boat. They embark on a series of misadventures such as Rollo in a diving suit battling the attacks of an aggressive swordfish. Upon the high seas the couple becomes surrounded by a fleet of menacing cannibals. With the aid of a crate of flares the film reaches its explosively funny climax. This film brilliantly exemplifies Buster Keaton's ability to mine rich humor from the inanimate. The Navigator is a classic of the Golden Age of Comedy, centered on and about a single extraordinary prop: an immense five hundred-foot yacht. Plus: "The Love Nest" (1923): Buster trades a sailboat for a U-boat to plumb new depths of hilarity. Total running time: 110min. |

Sparrows Mr. Grimes and his wife operate a dismal "baby farm" near an alligator-infested swamp. Molly, played by Mary Pickford who at age 34, still is youthful and gives one of her best performances in her final juvenile role. Molly is the ingenious caregiver to a band of orphans held captive on the bayou farm. The plot turns around a kidnapped baby girl brought to the farm for concealment until kidnappers receive a ransom. They do not tell Grimes but he reads about it in the newspaper and decides it is safer to chuck the whole group in the alligator-infested bayou. When Molly learns of Grimes' plan, she plots a daring escape with her band. Yet the story goes on as Molly and her charges flee the police, the kidnapers and Mr. Grimes. The children crossing a rotting tree limb which has fallen over the swamp full of hungry alligators is perhaps one of the greatest tension-mounting moments of cinema history. It is "seat-gripping". Thrills, spills, chills and a little romance! Of all Pickford's films, this one may weather the test of time better than any other. Scott Eyman in Mary Pickford - America's Sweetheart (Donald I. Fine, Inc., 1990), said, "'Sparrows' dates hardly at all and has perennial appeal . . ." Produced by Pickford. Total running time: 84 min. |

Peter Pan Capturing the mysteries, adventures and delight of childhood, this is the first film and perhaps the best adaptation of James M. Barrie's timeless story. It became one of the most popular films of the twenties. Betty Bronson stars as Peter Pan, the boy who never grew up, who charms Wendy and her brothers to fly with him to Never-Never Land. On this distant island of dreams and magic, they struggle to rescue the Lost Boys from Captain Hook and his band of pirates, encountering along the way the delightful fairy Tinkerbell, a man-eating crocodile, and a band of valiant Indians. Nearly all of the intertitles (the words on the cards that we read to ourselves) are taken directly from J. M. Barrie's original play. This Peter Pan, opened Christmas week, 1924 then, like one of the Lost Boys, it vanished into a Never Land. Virtually unseen for decades the film has been fully restored from original nitrate materials, with authentic color tint highlighting remarkable special effects and fine photography. As for the lead role of Peter Pan, it was the author James Barrie who selected Betty Bronson, then an unknown to play Peter after he turned down silent superstars Mary Pickford, Gloria Swanson & Lillian Gish. Total running time: 105 min
