Bebe Daniels, which Paramount titles exist?
Re: Bebe Daniels, which Paramount titles exist?
Since the film doesn't have a Paramount logo, it might have escaped the donor restriction. It might also NOT have been in the Paramount package. No way to know since I've never seen a list of films in that donation.

Andrea K. is Senior VP of Asset Management at Paramount. When she posts on places like LinkedIn, it's usually to hype the five-year restoration of The Godfather. I can't help but wonder if the Paramount streaming service has something to do with her sudden disinterest in parting with any potential content. But, if it took them five years to restore Godfather, I'll be long gone by the time they get around to the Betty Compson titles I've been longing for.

With the exception of that infamous incident long, long ago, when a vengeful Raymond Rohauer reportedly sicced the Paramount lawyers on John Hampton for his unauthorized public screening of THE COVERED WAGON at L.A.'s late, lamented Silent Movie Theater -- has Paramount (under all of its various corporate incarnations) ever made a stink about any examples of the widespread bootlegging of the company's copyright-protected silents (on film, tape or disc) that has occurred over the past half-century?
If only our opinions were as variable as the pre-talkie cranking speed...

If you type in "source paramount" (quotation marks not needed) in the search field at the online LOC silent film database with "all fields together" highlighted, you will get a search result of 194 titles that all have the notation that the archival source materials originally came from Paramount.
