"The Social Secretary" (1916, 52 min. Dir. John Emerson) features one of the top stars of the silent era, Norma Talmadge, as Mayme, who makes herself up to be as physically unattractive as possible so she can work without being sexually harassed. The witty script is by the legendary Anita Loos, with direction by John Emerson (WILD AND WOOLLY) and (uncredited) set design and assistant direction by Erich von Stroheim, who also costars, along with Gladden James (THE MYSTERY OF THE DOUBLE CROSS). Plus a great program of silent short subjects to be announced.
