The Quarry
THE QUARRY is a silent document of four minutes in the presence of the sublime. This small, quiet 16mm film serves as a testament both to cinema's failure to reproduce the lived moment and to its success in replacing that moment with one that is equally wondrous.Start your free trial to watch

The Gospel According to Saint Matthew
The birth, life, teachings and death on the cross of Jesus Christ presented almost as a cinéma-vérité documentary.

Alice Solves the Puzzle
Little Margie Gay, who would go on to play Alice in more than half of the Alice Comedies, made her first appearance in ALICE SOLVES THE PUZZLE (The title introducing her was lettered by Ub Iwerks, who was not only the studio's lead animator but also its lettering specialist).

Alice's Orphan
The title is a misnomer: Alice can be glimpsed here, but it's really Julius who finds, adopts and attempts to raise the orphan. The basic situation, and even some of the individual gags, are borrowed from Chaplin's feature-length comedy THE KID, released four years earlier. But Julius' unconventional parenting techniques are...Start your free trial to watch

Alice's Tin Pony
The title of this short is a takeoff on John Ford's THE IRON HORSE (1924), an epic Western about the building of the railroads.

Alice Rattled by Rats
Several of the Alice Comedies, including this one, featured crowds of nondescript mice or rats.

Alice the Jail Bird
In this offbeat entry, Alice and her friends steal a pie from a windowsill and wind up on the wrong side of the law.
