Be careful, this may not be what it seems
This is actually a very good obscure modern movie, but NOT the silent movie with Virginia Pearson. Further research shows that the silent film did not survive as of 2017, so there are no complete copies of it. The modern film concerns an Italian family that moved to England after the parents had an astonishing elopement. It is told from the point of view of one of the sons. It has some sad parts, but is basically funny and happy.
