Mary Anderson - silent film actress - died in 1986.
It's not actually a movie. Mary Pickford in that photo is dressed for the movie "A Little Princess", the boy is her brother, Jack Pickford is dressed for "Tom Sawyer" and the man is William S Hart dressed for "The Silent Man". The three of them were actually just messing around on a lunch break on the Famous Players - Lasky lot and took the photo for fun. It's an amazing shot!
Mary Anderson - silent film actress - was born on 1897-06-28.
Born Gladys Smith, Mary Pickford was a very famous actress during the years of Charlie Chaplin's comedic movies and silent films. She started acting at age 14, and was casted and starred in many movies by director D.W. Griffith (The Birth of a Nation). She became so famous that her salary was too expensive for any film production to afford, so along with Charlie Chaplin, Griffith, and her husband Douglas Fairbanks, she confounded her own film studio, United Artists. Pickford became the first millionaire in the movie world. She was known as "America's Sweetheart" because of her beauty and lasting youth in films.

The difference between silent film and sound film is because that silent film has no sound whatsoever and a sound film has sounds in it
a silent film is 'un film muet' in French.
Why Charlie Chaplin was one of them however there were many such as Buster Keaton, Harold Lloyd, Lon Chaney, Laurel and Hardy, and Greta Garbo A lot of people don't understand them and those who do i give major props too. There are MANY famous silent film stars. you have Sir Charles Chaplin( Charlie Chaplin, Not Charley Chapman) Charlie stars in silent films such A Dog's Life, Modern Times( i find that to be very funny), The kid, the circus, the great dictator and MANY more. Then there is Laurel and Hardy Very funny men. Harold Lloyd, Buster Keaton, Dorothy Gish, Lillian Gish, Edna Purviance, Mildred Davis, Olive Thomas, Lila Lee, Greta Garbo, Gloria Swanson, Jean Harlow, Louise Brooks, Billie Dove, Tom Mix, Roscoe Arbuckle, Clara Bow, Buck Jones , and waaaaaay more. There is also, among others, Gloria Swanson, Norma Talmadge, Buster Keaton, Gilbert Roland, Norma Shearer (who continued on as a major sound film star), Mary Pickford, Douglas Fairbanks, Rudolph Valentino, Fatty Arbuckle (involved in a huge scandal that scuttled his career), to name just a few. Gloria Swanson probably had the greatest, if only brief, reprisal of her career with 1950's "Sunset Boulevard" directed by Billy Wilder. Check it out - it's about a deluded, faded, aging silent film star and she is excellent.
