Scholarly Significance
-
This shows Fairbanks' reach outside of the US. His name is repeated three times on this small article at the top of the newspaper.
Again Fairbanks' influence into the film industry as he himself was a supervisor on the film, and his brother was head of technical effects. Douglas got places and had the importance to bring his family along.
Nepotism for Robert Fairbanks.
The showings were in 1922, two years after "The Mollycoddle" was released. Presents an importance and status to the film. It could be to gain more revenue on the fil or due to its popularity.
