This DVD collection from the National Film Preservation Foundation includes a complete presentation of this early Technicolor-sequences feature starring Richard Dix. Our first look at the disc reveals an excellent 35mm Technicolor and color-tinted print has been used for the excellent full-frame video transfer, which appears to have been done in high-definition. An absolute pleasure to watch.
For information about other films in this collection, see our notes on the boxset.
