Trivia The first showings of this film, in 1928, were silent with a live music score by Joseph Littau, In 1929 it was re-issued in a shortened version with a score by John Reynders recorded on an optical track. This contained music and a few (rather primitive) sound effects (as was normal at the time, before dialogue became normal). For the complete restoration at full length the 1929 soundtrack was edited and sections duplicated to fill up the length while matching the music to the action, a process requiring 120 music edits.
