And this would be?
Here’s another shot of our film within a film.
OK, last clew.
This is Dorothy McGuire in “The Spiral Staircase.”
Please congratulate Mike Hawks (1), Jenny M (2), LC (3) and Mete Sarabi (4) for identifying her and the film.
McGuire was identified by Patricia van Hartesveldt, Roget-L.A., Bob Levinson, Ed, Floyd Thursby and Gary Martin.
No one identified the silent film used in the movie, which imdb says is D.W. Griffith’s “The Sand of Dee.”
Certainly a much later era attempting to re-create the early silent movie-going experience. My random guess is the underrated, ‘Nickelodeon’ from the mid-seventies.

Looks like Janet Gaynor and Charlie Farrell. Sunnyside Up?

Just guessing …the couple in the lower right is Kay Francis and Leslie Howard…so the film is British Agent, 1934. On the screen it must be Orphans of the Storm ..the scene where the young girl is turned out.

Could that actually be Charles Morton with Janet, making it the lost film 4 Devils?

I’m pretty sure the third photo is Dorothy McGuire. Maybe in A Tree Grows in Brooklyn?

O.K. So here we have Dorothy McGuire in A Trees Grows in Brooklyn, 1945. As for the silent, I defer to the expert Mary Mollory. (It’s not Orphans in the Storm?) …btw…clue.

I say the correct answer is “The Spiral Staircase” starring Dorothy McGuire.
