Re: Her Friend The Bandit
Thank you Thierry - that's exactly the information I was seeking! Richard We’re glad you’re happy Richard, but I hate to tell you, with all due respect to Thierry, it’s still nothing but a guess, an educated guess perhaps, but still a guess nevertheless.

Re: POKER WIDOWS (1931) Arthur Stone, Patsy O'Leary
It has always boggled my mind just how clueless Mack Sennett was about Talkies.

Atlas Prints can be complete, but that seems to have been the way some TV stations were running them. The later Zouary prints are the ones that are complete and have their original opening and closi...
