Amarilly of Clothes-Line Alley (1918, 67 min.) - Amarilly is the belle of Clothes-Line Alley, a neighborhood near San Francisco's Chinatown. One night, after a fight breaks out in the club where she works as a cigarette girl, Amarilly (Mary Pickford) brings an injured socialite home with her. Grateful for her care, he hires Amarilly to clean his apartment and, over time, begins falling in love with her. But when Amarilly is presented at a posh social gathering, the disastrous results fuel the battle of high and low society. Mary Pickford is thoroughly charming and delightful as the feisty Amarilly.
