Stella Maris

"Brilliant!Powerful and poignant."- Los Angeles Times

Stella Maris shows Mary Pickford at the height of her fame in two of her greatest roles and is, therefore, one of Hollywood's greatest films.Pickford takes on dual roles: one as Stella Maris, a beautiful and crippled young heiress raised in luxurious isolation, and the other as Unity Blake, a homely, orphaned maidservant abused by her alcoholic employer, Louise Risca.Both Stella and Unity fall in love with Risca's long suffering husband, John.Realizing she can never have John, Unity makes the ultimate sacrifice.
