Thanks for the up! Just recently got obsessed with Louise Brooks. Healthily obsessed, not a nutter.

I don't want to be a pain -but- are there any other seeders ..... ? I love this movie : thanks

This is a great share! Thank you! But the image quality is somewhat poor. When the figures / character move in the screen it shows some kind of digital (?) horizontal lines. It's horrible. I don't know if this is originally from the DVD or the rip itself.
Anyone notice this? Beyond that it's great with all the extra features.
Thank you for this, again.
Still, I'm hunting for a better quality version than this one.
