Reviewing the SILENT HALL OF FAME’s LARRY SEMON: THE ULTIMATE COLLECTION.We have to remember that 35mm nitrate master films are rarely available for minor studio films.That said, The Niles Essanay Silent Film Museum has a policy of rating each film based on its actual picture quality and not on how rare good masters are for that title.Disc 12 includes;“DUNCES and DANGERS” (1 reel) ” (1918) Fair Quality, Focus is soft. <>“The STAGE HAND” (1920) Fair Quality 9.5mm transfer. Focus is soft, contrast slightly high. There is also an issue with double-imaging when objects move on screen, likely from a poor transition from the silent 18 frames per second to NTSC Video which runs at 30 frames per second. <>”THE SUITER” (1920) Good Quality.***My disc was defective and wouldn’t play this title completely, will update when replacement arrives*** <>“The SAW MILL” Starts our a little soft, then one minute in the source switches to a sharper print, but with higher contrast. << also available from other DVD companies such as Brentwood, Alpha Video and Grapevine Video, and those have the original Vitagraph titles!.“The STUNT MAN” (1927) Poor Quality. Unfortunately soft in focus to where you Cann’t see facial features. But we do get the original Educational Pictures titles. <>The manufacturer’s description states “most of these films are brand new high resolution transfers made with cutting-edge true frame-by-frame scanning technology, offering superior quality compared to other releases. “ I have seen NO high resolution transfers of any Larry Semon comedies in this DVD series, even the best transfers suffer from digital compression artifacts.You will fid a few soft slightly washed out 9.5mm home movie prints on some of these.Sadly in some cases this is ALL that survives on that title, however a better digital transfer system such as the Museum has would be a welcome improvement on these.The Niles Essanay Silent Film Museum has its own HD sprocket-less digital frame transfer system that could do wonders with these prints. But some film archives prefer to do their own digitization rather than risk sending their rare films through any shipping system, risking loss.The bottom line: this is likely the best you will find, but at the Criterion price of $34 this is for the devout Larry Semon fan. Causal fans will likely go for the $6.99 Alpha Video DVDs.
