Silents, Please! Little Annie Rooney (1925)

---

27	AUGUST 14:00 and 16:00

New 4k digital restoration courtesy of the Mary Pickford Foundation! Shown with newly composed and recorded orchestral score by Andy Gladbach.

Our program on Sunday begins with a screening of the Buster Keaton classic short The Balloonatic, with live theater organ accompaniment by Dale Abraham.

Kids 12 and under FREE

Few women in early Hollywood wielded as much power as “America’s sweetheart,” Mary Pickford. Through a career that spanned over 250 films, Pickford truly established what it meant to be a Golden Age movie star. For this classic – seen here in a brand new restoration – Pickford served as producer, star, and writer of the original story for the film. Pickford stars as the titular tenement kid, a plucky ragamuffin who spends her days wrecking havoc in the streets that her cop father patrols but, when tragedy strikes, she realizes that she must grow up fast.

Check out the Unlandmarks Map, an interactive website that tracks trees, buildings, restaurants and anything that once stood and is no more. Just like in any city, people in Pittsburgh rely on landmarks to get from one place to another, but in Pittsburgh, it doesn’t matter if the landmark exists anymore. Folks still use them to give directions.

The concept is the inspiration behind the new Unlandmarks Map, an interactive website that tracks trees, buildings, restaurants and anything that once stood and is no more.“The map is a project by Code for Pittsburgh, the local Code for America group, for which Sites-Bowen is the head. They work with cities to create computer programs and codes that help government run more efficiently. But Sites-Bowen said every once in a while they do something a little more whimsical, like a Fish Fry map.

The team will be taking submissions on a rolling basis and will keep most of the data they collect in the public domain.  Propose an Unlandmark
