In a delightful homage to "The Nut Cracker" we find this very rare sequence from the "Public Domain" feature BEAUTY'S WORTH (Paramount, 1922). Replete In a festive Yuletide card setting, Marion is a Beautiful Doll Ornament who suddenly comes to life, just as the other toys do. She drops from her hook beneath the Tree and joins her friends. A charming Christmas Eve Fantasy ensues on the one night when truly magical events can and do occur.

TWO ARABIAN KNIGHTS (1927) On TCM Tonight!!!

This is one of my favorite movies ever. Matter of fact, if I was introducing a person to Silents for the very first time this is what I would show them! And it is on TCM tonight!

I missed a chunk of the broadcast in November or December of 2004, when the film debuted on TCM in Prime-time! I was recording with the ATI card, but somehow the recorder got shut off for about 20 minutes right in the middle of the movie. I was so frustrated.
