The Short films of Alice Joyce

Thanks to Derek Boothroyd for this list, compiled from the AFI catalogs, American film personnel and company credits, 1908-1920 by Paul C. Spehr (based on Lauritzen and Lundquist's American film-index volumes), Bodeen's Films in Review article filmography and one follow-up FIR letter, the IMDb filmography, the Treasures from the Film Archives book and the FIAF CD-ROM. Alice Joyce made scores of short films for Kalem between 1910 and 1915, and her participation in all of the following films has not been confirmed. In early interviews, she recalled that The Engineer's Sweetheart was her first film. I have removed some films which appear in the above listings: The Soldier Brothers of Susanna (1912), The Octoroon (1913) and The Perils of the Sea (1913), because for the first two, existing cast lists do not include her, and for the last film, no record of its existence can be found in Moving Picture World, New York Dramatic Mirror, or the Kalem Kalendar. Unless otherwise noted, the whereabouts of the film is unknown. The films are arranged by release date.
