This DVD edition is surprisingly presented in a full-frame video transfer, when many PBS productions of recent years have been produced in 16:9 high-definition widescreen, this 90-minute program combines high-quality 35mm footage with lower-quality prints of surviving Pickford films from the Library of Congress.

It is distinguished by the usual American Experience quality of production.
