Arturo Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Yes! A great spotlight on one of the biggest stars of the late Silent period, and someone who should have retained his popularity into the talkies. What a trajedy befell (was concocted to end) his career and private life. Looking forward to recording 2 or 3 I don't have on DVD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
