    • Trivia
      The DVD presently making the rounds has been apparently transferred from a surviving 35MM print, with well worn reel endings and changes, and runs 62 minutes, as opposed to the New York City 1929 running time of 82 minutes, suggesting that 2 reels have been eliminated over the ensuing years.
