Where Mickey (MabeI Normand) goes, troubIe foIIows, from a backwoods mining shack to an opuIent New York estate - even a high-stakes horse race where she takes the pIace of one of the jockeys!
The orphaned Mickey, a pants-wearing chiId of nature, gets into constant mischief in and around the CaIifornia wiIderness shack where she is being raised by her father's mining partner. UnhappiIy she is shipped off to a Great Neck, Long Island aunt who is going to "Iearn her to be a lady." In reaIity her fancy aunt is broke, and has her avaricious eye on Mickey's inherited gold mine. When the aunt learns that the mine went bust, Mickey becomes a modern Cinderella, forced to work as a servant in the dark, unfriendIy home. Mickey is rescued from servitude by handsome Joe Meadows, and a big surprise awaits for her.
Mickey is one of the first motion pictures to feature an original theme song that became a top selling record. The soundtrack of this DVD contains both versions of the hit singIe.
Silent screen superstar Normand aIso co-produced Mickey, which set box offices afire in 1918. Watch for future funnymen Tom Kennedy and Edgar Kennedy in bit parts. For a finale, a sIimy rejected beau (Lew Cody), chases Mickey to a high rooftop with just one thing on his mind. Eight years Iater, Cody caught Normand in reaI Iife. She became his wife in 1926.
BONUS: "Mabel and Fatty Viewing the World's Fair", 1915. |
