If even a little effort was taken away with the "Queen Kelly" obsession and put into locating a copy of the 1930 lost film, I'm sure at least part of it could be found.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3891927412771509295.post-36716336288497032192009-08-12T23:05:29.681+02:002009-08-12T23:05:29.681+02:00I'd never heard of this film before, but this ...I'd never heard of this film before, but this was a fascinating read.

For me, your posts are like a nice glass of Prosecco. They make me all giddy and happy.<br /><br />I had no previous knowledge of Queen Kelly and I came here ignorant but leave here informed.<br /><br />I loved the clips you chose. Especially the Dick Cavett one. Gloria Swanson looked swell for 1970! And Cavett really is so important for film history especially his interviews with legendary film stars.Raquel Stecherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02687110907002450794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3891927412771509295.post-7639136146884538762009-06-11T13:46:54.225+02:002009-06-11T13:46:54.225+02:00This was great.
