A Noise from the Deep still exists and was screened four times in 2006 in the Museum of Modern Art in New York City as part of a 56-film retrospective of all known surviving Arbuckle movies.

Overview

Normand throws the first pie known to ever be thrown on film in this ten-minute short about a gorgeous farm girl (Normand) in love with an obese farmhand (Arbuckle); the charming country couple wants to get married but are delayed by her father's insistence upon her choosing a different suitor.

The movie was the first pairing of Mabel Normand and Roscoe 'Fatty' Arbuckle, who went on to become a sensationally popular romantic screen team and made seventeen films together; writer/director/actress Normand, the most prominent silent movie comedian, was an almost equally frequent partner and mentor of Charles Chaplin during the same period.

Cast

gollark: Permanently locked bootloaders: because not letting the user control their device is the *best* way to secure it.
gollark: Well, it has the pogo pins, so it could support one.
gollark: It doesn't, sadly. BlackBerry are the only company making physical keyboard-equipped smartphones as far as I know, and they don't even allow rooting as far as I know.
gollark: Yes, it is pretty thick. It has bits on M.2 cards after all.
gollark: At least if the debt increases more slowly than inflation, it's kind of sort of okay!
