gagman66 Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 Another Television debut of a long unseen *Mary Pickford* feature from 1919 *THE HOODLUM* is being unveiled this evening on Silent Sundays. As with *THE POOR LITTLE RICH GIRL,* I have never seen this movie before. New orchestral score composed by *Bonnie Ruth Janofsky,* a composer who I am not familiar with. Hope that it is good. The film has been restored by *AMPAS,* and unlike the debut the other night, I believe there should be 35 materials of *THE HOODLUM* to draw from. Here's hoping for a crisp new print. Don't forget to tune in or record the broadcast! This picture has not yet been released on DVD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ugaarte Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 I so agree with your Portraits of Mary Pickford . . . I wish I had the last 2 picture you've posted here, to hang on my wall. I commented on your other thread of Mary Picford, too. Thanks again Gagman for posting. Regards, Ugaarte Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gagman66 Posted November 15, 2010 Author Share Posted November 15, 2010 ugaarte, Yes, I love the photo with the Finch. I think it is from *DADDY LONG LEGS,* because I seem to remember a sequence like that? I haven't seen it in a number of years though and do not recall for sure? There doesn't seem to be much similarity between the Pickford and Temple films. They are essentially two completely different stories with the same title. I believe Shirley's movie was released in 1939 and was filmed in Technicolor. Interesting about your father. My dad loved his Finch's, and had feeders in both the front and back yards when I was a kid. So many different colors. My Father wasn't born until 1932, but He's been gone now for 13 years, and my Mother passed on 8 years ago this past October. I added several photos to the old HOLLYWOOD REVUE of 1929 Thread that you might not have seen yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ugaarte Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 Hi Gagman . . . What a Wonderful Memory, among others I'm sure, your Dad must have left you with, ONE BEING the feeding of the the Finches he loved . . . My Mother also passed away 13 Years Ago this month, and she too loved Birds . . . but hers were in the form of colorful ceramic Birds, which she had all over our house. sHE USED TO LET ME pLAY WITH THEM & i'D CREATE A WHOLE sTORY WITH THEM. aND My Dad passed away 11 years ago in Sept '99 ... I miss them both VERY MUCH. As far as 'HOLLYWOOD REVUE OF 1929' i THINK i SAW ALL YOUR wONDERFUL PHOTOS THAT YOU'VE pOSTED THERE. mY LATEST ENTRY WAS ON oCT 31, 2010 ..... iT WAS THE lAST eNTRY TO THE tHREAD .... i HAD TO GO DOWN 9 pAGES TO LOCATE THE tHREAD, bUT i HAVE eVERY fAITH THAT 'sHE'LL' rEAR HER bEAUTIFUL hEAD UP, ONCE aGAIN ! rEGARDS, uGAARTE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gagman66 Posted November 17, 2010 Author Share Posted November 17, 2010 ugaarte, Whoops, my mistake on the Shirley Temple movie. I was of course mixing up *POOR LITTLE RICH GIRL* with *THE LITTLE PRINCESS.* for some reason. But hey I do the same with Mary Pickford's versions too! Anyway, you were correct about 1936 for Shirley's version. Did you get to see *THE HOODLUM?* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
