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) |
