I absolutely love it. From the beauty of the filming to the music placed over it, I love everything about it.

Realize when you watch this that you are getting a rare look into the lives of the people involved with the film, from over 80 years ago. Instead of just watching a movie, you're seeing the real people, behind the scenes. It's as if you've been given the chance to look through a window in time. Sadly, you will also come to the realization that most likely, nobody in this film is alive today.

Very beautiful! And full of clips of scenes that never made it into the heavily-edited final version of the movie, which ended up barely making sense. Thanks very much for the link!

Flat, drab passion meanders across the screen!

"And full of clips of scenes that never made it"

Those aren't scenes from the movie, this is a behind-the-scenes film. Everything you see here is of the people screwing around and going about their lives.
