THEIR PURPLE MOMENT

Laserdisc

Both films are silent but have Music and Effects.

Both films "digitally mastered from original 35mm Library of Congress preservation elements, alternate camera negatives, and first generation fine grain elements".

"Double Whoopee" was "pieced together from four different - and varying - elements" and "Their Purple Moment" was taken from "several excellent 35mm sources" and uses a "composite" Vitaphone soundtrack.

Produced by Michael Agee; soundtrack elements provided by David Shepard.
