I'm curious too, but it is possible...without being a century old, that is. As I understand it, the remaining positive print and preprint elements were lost in a fire only as late as 1967. Right. If I’m not mistaken, Everson saw it—in the ‘50s, maybe? (I may be misremembering and he saw it earlier.) I probably shouldn’t have come off as so sarcastic; it’s just that, for years and years, there have been people who have reported seeing it and then, when pressed for details, just say that it was scary or that Chaney walked like Groucho Marx (the latter detail having appeared in contemporaneous reviews). But maybe koskiewicz means he saw the TCM restoration? We can only hope we'll be favored with a forthcoming elaboration. I daresay the chances of that are better as they stand than equally imminent solutions to those two other mysteries of the age. |
