Boy, I hadn't seen this one in a very long time. Was it a TCM premiere? Only think I remembered much about it was the theme song. I was impressed with how much it really looked like the 1910's. Great attention to detail. Very impressive production value. Several scenes were sort of a tribute to the Slapstick pioneer's of film Although lots of added noises and voices didn't make those sequences any funnier.

Yes, that's why I said if might make things less clear concerning the earlier post. Have you got any guesses on the other photo though?

This photo might toss a Monkey Wrench into things.

*Charles Farrell and Esther Ralston- "On The High Seas Of Love"*

*Charles Farrell and Dolores Del Rio- "Frisky Feelings"-The Red Dance (1928)* *"Well Balanced Del Rio"* *Carmen Says, "Tend My Bruises!"* *"Majestic Carmen"*

*"Ever A Bridesmaid"* *"Even Moore Darling"* *"Your To Skinny Child! Eat Something Already!"*

*Colleen- "Before The Statue of Joan"* *"Somewhere In Lilac Time"*

*William Haines, Eleanor Bordman and Ben Lyon- "No Lighting Privileges"-From WINE OF YOUTH (1924)*

Here is some new stuff of my own that I ave not posted here yet. Couple of stills of Swanson and Ricardo Cortez from the I presume lost feature *A SOCIETY SCANDAL (1924).* *"Romantic Air"* *"A Stylish Courtship"* And another Swanson portrait in costume for *THE GREAT MOMENT (1921)*. :wink: *"Danger, Gypsy!"*

Yes another still from LILAC TIME. This looks like one that I did in the past, but it is a different pose from the same sequence. "And Now We Must Part!"

This scene from King Vidor's BARDLEYS THE MAGNIFICENT had the actual date of the filming overhead. April 16th 1926. Very interesting. Originally plans were to produce BARDLEYS entirely in Technicolor. And Claire Windsor was to play the role of the Lady Roxalanne. Plans were dropped because Douglas Fairbanks released THE BLACK PIRATE in Technicolor. Since BARDELYS was essentially a spoof, of the Fairbanks swashbuckler's MGM didn't think that Doug would take kindly to the Technicolor process. I think BARDELYS would be far higher regarded if the missing 3rd reel were found. The stills that bridged the story are nice, but hopefully the lost reel turns up someplace and can be saved. They also took some brief footage from a trailer. Magazine's talked about the chance to see Clair Windsor's Naturally blonde hair and clear blue eyes in Color,. However, her eyes would have appeared green in the film., because Two-Color Technicolor's base colors are Red and Green. The still took me all night to finish this morning. Over three hours! Normally I can get at least 4 or 5 done in that period to time. *John Gilbert, Eleanor Boardman, and George K. Arthur- "Suspicions Flair!"*

You may know the woman in this still, but what about the man? On the other hand you might not know either one? Let's see.

Nope. Not Kathleen Key. She was even leading lady for Warner Baxter, Richard Barthelmess, John Gilbert and Charles Farrell.

OK, she was a Leading Lady for Tom Mix, Raymond Griffith, Reginald Denny, Richard Barthelmess, John Barrymore and many others.

No, it is not Linda Darnell.

Is it Jean Seaberg?

Correct it is Farrell and Ralston from James Cruze OLD IRONSIDES (1926)

I believe it's Anita too.
