This Is Francis X. Bushman

His virile presence made him a demanded screen lead from the early teens until the twilight of the silents, yet precious little of this output survives today. The life and career of Francis X. Bushman receive a compelling consideration in this documentary featuring copious materials from the family archives, including surviving footage and audio recordings from Bushman himself. 60 min.
