Synopsis:

The Scarecrow (1921)
A drunken gardener is challenged to a poker match by agents of the Devil; replete with location shots in Hades of the Devil giving orders to his agents on Earth.

Midnight Wedding (1921)
The film is a delightful tale of a spoiled wedding between child's toys which shows Starewicz's typical style of making amusing films appropriate for children without much sentimentality. As in many of his other films, his daughter Nina plays the role of the child.

The Voice of the Nightingale (1925)
A partly-animated short film, a fairy-tale-like telling of why the nightingale only sings at night. A young girl who has caught a nightingale dreams about the nightingale and its mate, and comes to realize that birds are not made to be captive but free. In return for its freedom, the nightingale loans the child its voice for use in the daytime, which is why nightingales only sing at night.

The Queen Of The Butterflies (1927)
A little girl acts out her role as Queen of the Butterflies until a spider arrives to complicate the situation.

4 movies from 1921 to 1927. Jeanne Starewitch, youngest daughter of Ladislas and Anne Starewitch, in the role of Nina Star, the heroine of this program.
