JBFC Film Preservation Series: The Unknown/Pinto Ben

JBFC presents two preservations from the George Eastman Museum beginning with Pinto Ben, the 1915 silent film western short written, directed by and starring William S. Hart. Then Lon Chaney stars as the Great Alonzo, a supposedly armless precision knife-thrower with a secret or two, including his love for Nanon (Joan Crawford in her breakout role) in Tod Browning’s 1927 The Unknown.
