A Kiss From Mary Pickford (Russian: Поцелуй Мэри Пикфорд, romanized: Potseluy Meri Pikford) is a 1927 Soviet silent comedy film made and directed by Sergei Komarov and co-written by Komarov and Vadim Shershenevich. The film, starring Igor Ilyinsky, is mostly known today because of a cameo by the popular film couple Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks. The footage of the couple was shot during their visit to the USSR, with the couple knowingly participating as a gesture towards the Russian film industry.[2][3]
A print of the film still exists and is preserved at the Library of Congress.[4] The film was shown during the Berlin International Film Festival in February 1991 and at San Francisco Silent Film Festival Winter Festival at the Castro Theatre in February 2009.
