I would like to use parts of this film for a short video I'm putting together. At the end of the film on YouTube it states: "Special contents of this edition (copyright) 2005 Douris Corp." I take it that this means parts of the film are Public Domain. If true, would anyone know which parts are copyrighted and which parts are not ??

I'm not sure which Youtube video you're referring to. The film itself is probably in the public domain, since it was made in 1926. The copyright probably applies to whatever original soundtrack Douris added to it.
