A Lost Gem Semi-found, 1 November 2002
9/10
Author: montana-4 from Midwest

The Turner Classic Movies recreation of this "lost" classic was unbelievably well done. The Recreation using still photos was close to experiencing it on film. The music was well suited to the theme. I sincerely hope that a print of this classic exists somewhere so that it can be seen.
