I think TCM Programmer should know....If they're purchasing rights or whatever to air "Judex" & "Phantom" (Fantomas)...maybe they will do the same with "The Garden of Eden"...Hopefully, because the movie & the shorts are great to watch.

Another wild guess: Randolph Scott?

MovieJoe...I've been realizing we have the same tastes when it comes to movies. I too prefer the original 1939 "Wuthering Heights", the 1940 "Pride..".... and the original "1943" Jane Eyre with Joan Fontaine(not counting the 1934 version with Virginia Bruce which I haven't seen)...well among classics, there also are better versions, to choose i.e.: "The Scarlet Letter" (1926) with Lillian Gish is much better than the Colleen Moore 1934 talkie ....the 1946 british "Great Expectations" is better than the 1934 version with Phillips Holmes and Jane Wyatt, I've heard, 'cos I haven't seen the latter...but Lean's version is a masterpiece...and "Les Miserables"...I love the 1935 version, although the british 1950's one is not bad at all, on the very contrary...and the same applies to Dicken's "A Tale of 2 Cities"...the 1935 movie is as good as the british Dirk Bogarde one...but I stick to Colman...the '30s and '40s were very special "filmic" "times"

Well maybe it's a matter of tastes...my sister who is an avid Jane Austen fan, loved the Colin Firth English Miniseries (BBC) and said it was a lot better than MGM's 1940 production starring Olivier and Garson...maybe the period and detail, and even the acting is somewhat better in this newer "versions"....but the Old Hollywood pictures, have a special je-ne-sais-quoi (enchantment?/charm?), which is unsurpassed, in spite of all the handicaps that may make them "less real" or "less faithful to the original sources"...I don't know, maybe it is just the same with Little Women,...there are even some fans who prefer the 1949 June Allyson version.... As is stated before, It's just a matter of tastes...
