His Double Life
1933
A charming movie and one of the first soundies with great Lillian Gish See details here: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0024122/ I've used http://www.archive.org/details/his_double_life as a source and did the following: - trimmed it of 1/2 hour of the dead air in the end thus making the original 3Gb file smaller - compressed it using DivX codec thus making it even more small - normalized the sound (which originally was too low for some reason) - created and added Russian subtitles and Russian sountrack (with help of my wife who dubbed female voices) Beware that Russian and English soundtracks are #1 and #2 respectively.
His Double Life is a 1933 American comedy-drama film directed by Broadway theatrical impresario and first time film director Arthur Hopkins with directorial input from the experienced William C. deMille, Cecil's older brother. It starred Roland Young and Lillian Gish. It had been filmed before in 1921 in the silent era as The Great Adventure (1921 film) with Lionel Barrymore, and was remade again in 1943 as Holy Matrimony (1943 film). It is preserved at the Library of Congress, Washington D.C. and available on DVD.
