My Best Girl Summary
Director: Sam Taylor
Genres: Comedy Drama, Romance
Rating:

Mary_Pickford stars as the "Miss Fix-it" for her eccentric family. Pickford's job at a dime-store keeps her postman dad (Lucien_Littlefield), addlepated mom (Sunshine_Hart) and loose-living sister (Carmelita_Geraghty) from going under. She falls in love with handsome Charles "Buddy" Rogers, never dreaming that the boy is the son of store-owner Hobart_Bosworth. The "meeting cute" scene between Pickford and Rogers has been so often excerpted in silent-movie compilations that it's possible many viewers have it memorized. Based on a story by Kathleen Norris, My Best Girl served to introduce Mary_Pickford to future-husband Rogers (they were wed nearly a decade later). Lucien_Littlefield, the "old codger" who plays Pickford's father, was in reality three years younger than Pickford! Hal Erickson, Rovi
