Original Toronto Star caption: Hollywood movie pioneer King Vidor and his favorite companion, 70-year-old former 'flapper' of the 20s, Colleen Moore, are in Toronto to attend tonight's screening of his 1928 silent masterwork, The Crowd, at the Ontario Science Centre. Vidor, 78, has been friends with Miss Moore since he directed her in The Sky Pilot in 1921. Vidor, who retired in 60s, says he might start making another movie in a year or so.
