Those were the same films listed as 'lost' back in the 60's (writers rarely said 'missing'. It was pretty much a done deal back then), but despite constant new discoveries these many decades for many top comedians, nothing seems to change on Fields front. These films continue to be MIA.
I do keep seeing on the WEB that HIS LORDSHIP'S DILEMMA (15) was found in a private collection in Belgium back in 2006. Any truth to that?
