Opening October and running through November at the Museum of Modern Art is the much anticipated 10th edition of the To Save and Project International Festival of Film Preservation. One of the major highlights is a gorgeous 35mm print of John Francis Dillon's Call Her Savage (1932), starring Clara Bow and shot by Lee Garmes. The film will open the series, on October 11, and be followed that evening with a screening of another must see restoration, Raoul Walsh's Wild Girl.
