Kellerman's 1911 short film entitled "Siren of the Sea" (1911), costarring Maurice Costello, which I located in the Danish Film Institute (DFI), is important because it was not listed as a known title with Internet Movie Database or American Film Institute (AFI) until I discovered it in this archive.
The discovery of "Fanchon The Cricket" (1915) starring the Pickford family, in the British Film Institute (BFI) archive, was also very exciting because this has always been considered a long lost Pickford film.
I have also forwarded the Jack Pickford, Lottie Pickford, Olive Thomas and other Mary Pickford releases to Timeline Films for possible future release.
