Fanchon on the Cricket, based on an "adult fairy tale" by George Sand stars Mary Pickford as the title character, a strong-willed waif ostracized by "acceptable society" until she shows them the power of love and understanding. Directed by James Kirkwood and boasting exquisite cinematography by Edward Wynard, Fanchon the Cricket was filmed on location in Delaware Gap, Pennsylvania. A natural sensual and uninhibited Pickford breaks through today's stereotype of her as the "girl with the curls." It is also the only surviving film in which both Jack and Lottie Pickford appear with their sister.
