{"product_id":"cinderella-1914-silent-mod-dvd-movie","title":"Cinderella (1914) (Silent) (MOD) (DVD MOVIE)","description":"The classic fairy tale of a poor urchin who finds her Prince Charming is brought to life by silent screen legend Mary Pickford, in one of the roles that made her \"America's Sweetheart.\" Employing ingenious uses of trick photography and stop-motion animation, \u003ci\u003eCinderella\u003c\/i\u003e was a hit at the box office during Christmas week of 1914. The success of Pickford features such as \u003ci\u003eCinderella\u003c\/i\u003e convinced Paramount mogul Adolph Zukor to give her complete artistic control over her films and a record-breaking $10,000 a week salary a mere two years later. Prince Charming is played by Pickford's real-life husband, Owen Moore (he was not so charming in real life, as she would leave him for her second husband, Douglas Fairbanks, in 1920.) Director James Kirkwood began his career acting in D.W. Griffith pictures such as \u003ci\u003eA Corner in Wheat\u003c\/i\u003e (1909) and \u003ci\u003eHome, Sweet Home\u003c\/i\u003e (1914).  A close friend of Pickford's, he directed several of her films, including \u003ci\u003eHome, Sweet Home\u003c\/i\u003e (1914) and \u003ci\u003eFanchon the Cricket\u003c\/i\u003e (1915). Despite his success behind the camera, he would continue acting well into the 1950s. The film was initially titled \u003ci\u003eThe Stepsister\u003c\/i\u003e, presumably in an attempt to distinguish it from an earlier 1911 version starring Florence La Badie. \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBONUS: \u003ci\u003eCinderella Blues\u003c\/i\u003e (BW, 1931): \u003c\/b\u003eA feline Cinderella and Prince Charming star in this 1931 cartoon from Van Beuren Studios with a decidedly Jazz Age bent.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"COLOR: #0000ff\"\u003eDVD Details\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u0026gt;Rated:  NR\u003cbr\u003e\u0026gt;Runtime:  1 hours,  0 minutes\u003cbr\u003e\u0026gt;Encoding: Region 1(US \u0026amp; Canada)\u003cbr\u003e\u0026gt;Originally Released:  1\/1\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u0026gt;Label:  Alpha Video\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStarring: Mary Pickford\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"BORDER-BOTTOM: blue 3px solid; BORDER-LEFT: blue 3px solid; WIDTH: 675px; HEIGHT:140px; BORDER-TOP: blue 3px solid; BORDER-RIGHT: blue 3px solid\"\u003eThis product is made-on-demand by the manufacturer using DVD-R recordable media.
