The Cosmopolitan Studio, owned by William Randolph Hearst, was hit by a fire when
Little Old New York, starring Marion Davies was about 60 per cent completed. The negatives of that film and two others were not damaged.

William Randolph Hearst, Marion's long-term partner, purchased a theater in Manhattan. The first movie shown was to be

Little Old New York was finished nearly on schedule.
