We have not viewed the DVD. The DVD also includes the Mary Pickford short film What the Daisy Said (1910).

The DVD features a new chamber orchestra music score by Maria Newman (beware!).

Although we are certain that this is a fine silent film on DVD, we cannot comment on or recommend the disc at this time.
