Rare DeMille silent survives at Eastman House, 23 January 2002

This rare Cecil B. DeMille silent with a cast that includes Florence Vidor and the future star, Alice Terry (in a small role as a saleslady), has just escaped being a lost film. A print is housed at the George Eastman House in Rochester, N.Y. Perhaps the only reason for its survival is the DeMille name.
