The Taming of the Shrew

Recently restored by MoMA, this classic film features Hollywood’s first power couple, United Artists cofounders Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks, sharing the screen for the first, and only, time.

The Taming of the Shrew offers a lavish and at times hilarious showcase for the legendary couple. Christel Schmidt, editor of the recent book Mary Pickford: Queen of the Movies, introduces the film and signs books afterward. (66 mins., 35mm)
