Poor Little Rich Girl (1917, 64 min.) starring Mary Pickford in a film that her producers did not want to release but became a huge hit when Mary played a rambunctious, plucky girl for the first time. Directed by Maurice Tourneur, adapted for the screen by Frances Marion and with oversized props by production designer Ben Carre, Poor Little Rich Girl was ground- breaking at the time.
