If you're looking for the 1917 (or so) film with Pola Negri, I believe the National Center for Jewish Film has it from Kevin Brownlow. If not, then I would go to Kevin directly. Or, since Harvard has it, you might want to check with the Harvard Film Archive.

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
