04/20/2014 A remarkable documentary about Baby Peggy, a child star of early silent era Hollywood as a toddler. She was among the first child stars to suffer through the pitfalls of such early success and becoming the family's breadwinner at the age of 4. This film uses what film footage remains to showcase her talents and interviews with her now as one of the last remaining living stars of the silent era. Extraordinary story. See more 12/08/2012 Very good documentary of a long forgotten silent star. See more 11/26/2012 good but sad doc on one of the last silent film stars See more Read all reviews
