well if that is true that would be something... I heard of Martin Korber
as he is with tehh AMIA
group and this does nor surprise me as with most early film is was not
saved and sat in barns//
A company that was making me a crate back in 80s found tin buckets of
nitrate in a barn..that was from the early edison films. they donated
it to the library of congress that ironically has the film depository
at wright pattterson air force base in Dayton.. becaue they used to
store all the war footage there also.
Its remarkable if it wasnt for collectors most of te pop culture would
have been trashed years ago.
this would be great especially if Kino released a version..
It would be cool if someone found London after midnight also. and many
otehr lost films..
Linwood Dunn created a machine that turned paper negatives back into
film as the only copies of many were on paper rolls and started to
disintergrate.. Linwood worked with willis Obrien... at RKO and
when Rko wouldnt finance it Linwood gave the machine to Kemp Niver who
refilmed in 16mm
frame by frame all the paper negs and received a academy technical
acheivement award...
this is cool news... and Imagine whet that would be like...... what
concerns me was wheat kind of broken projector was used and di the print
get scratched up super bad,,, but hey if this is true it could be awesome

Let's not forget that this film ranked #4 on MPC's all time greatest
sci-fi list.
