Where's the Fire? (1921)

Postby Andrew Sholl » Fri Mar 11, 2011 9:54 am

Chase and Pollard completists note that what appears to be a near-complete copy of the Snub one-reeler WHERE'S THE FIRE? (H-64), directed by Charley Parrott, is being offered for sale on eBay. A Pathegram version of the same film was up for auction earlier this year. To my knowledge it's one of their films hitherto believed no longer to be extant. http://cgi.ebay.com/1921-16MM-Film-Movi ... 1c1a025873

At 200 feet it ain;t complete, it's about half the film.

My bad. Does that imply it's also a cut-down version for home release?
