That's an excellent question I don't know the answer to. I show both Eastman
House and MOMA with prints, but have some doubts that either is in 35mm. I
have never seen a 35 of this and never heard of one being shown, though the 8mm
prints are so stunning that you assume that UA had really good material to work
from.

Tried the Eastman House and they say they don't have it in 35mm. It was
shown here in 1985 in a 16mm. silent print, but I don't even know where THAT
came from. What's MOMA like to deal with regarding the leasing of films?

Thanks for the info! Do you know if either Miss Moore's 35mm print or the
bad 16mm they showed last year had the soundtrack?
Several years ago I found about 100' of 16mm silent color material on "Lilac
Time." It was a dupe of the aerial fight with tints and hand-colored footage of
flashing machine guns, etc. I don't know where this material came from. I gave the
material to a pair of collectors in the midwest who had a great fondness for Colleen
Moore.

The original title song (Jeannine, I Dream of Lilac Time) is around, but that, of
course, does not a score make.
