Viewing Notes
Surprising to see Joe Bob do a classic silent film! I own it but haven’t watched it since I did my silent film focus a few years ago so it was a nice treat. They played the best, most recently restored version from Kino Lorber which features a new recording of the original soundtrack which just does wonders for the presentation.
