Baby Peggy: The Elephant in the Room

Before Shirley Temple, moviegoers delighted to the antics of child actor "Baby Peggy" Montgomery, who made dozens of silent shorts and features from 1921 (at age two) to 1925. This moving documentary follows the pint-sized star's rise to global fame and subsequent fall into obscurity, the troubled family life that marked her childhood, and how decades later in her 90s she'd be rediscovered by new generations of fans. 58 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital stereo; bonus shorts "Carmen, Jr." (1923), "Peg o' the Mounted" (1924), "Such Is Life" (1924). Also includes the bonus feature "Captain January" (1924).
