Pretty Maids All in a Row
16 August 2016
John Bunny becomes Consul-General to Turkestan and leaves his four little daughters in the care of their nanny, Flora Finch. Half a dozen years later, he returns with his new wife, Julia Swayne Gordon, to discover them grown into Vitagraph starlets in this amusing display of Edwardian pulchritude.

All the ladies are gorgeous -- well, Miss Finch is her usually silly-looking self, but amiable about it. Even the shop girl is who sells Mr. and Mrs. Bunny dolls for what they imagine are the little ones, is Clara Kimball Young. There are ladies wearing elegant fashions and handsome young men in uniform at a ball. In short, it is a comedy for ladies, with a little bit of amusement directed at Mr. Bunny, who wears a most elegant and military-looking mustache.

If you wish to look at this movie, a good copy has been posted on the Eye Institute site on Youtube.
