 \n\nThe Little American\n\nU.S.\, 1917\n\nThis year we celebrate Silent 
 Movie Day with Mary Pickford and Cecil B. DeMille’s war-time classic\, 
 The Little American. Written by longtime DeMille collaborator Jeanie 
 Macpherson\, Angela (Pickford) finds herself torn between two lovers — 
 one French (Raymond Hatton)\, one German (Jack Holt) — and follows them 
 to Europe as they fight on opposite sides of the trenches. The UCLA Film & 
 Television Archive photochemically restored The Little American in 1990 
 from DeMille’s personal 35mm nitrate print and a nitrate negative 
 fragment. In 2019\, the Archive partnered with the Mary Pickford Foundation 
 to scan the preservation duplicate picture negative in 4K as the basis for 
 the current digital restoration.—Associate Motion Picture Curator Steven 
 K. Hill\n\nDCP\, b&w\, silent with musical accompaniment\, 63 min. 
 Director: Cecil B. DeMille. Screenwriter: Jeanie Macpherson\, Clarence J.
