Long-Lost Silent Film Found In Disused Cinema

Long-Lost Silent Film Found In Disused Cinema George Pearson directed British actress Betty Balfour in 1923's Love, Life And Laughter which turned up in a small Dutch town. The film was included in the British Film Institute's (BFI) most wanted list of lost movies and only one other film by Pearson survives in its entirety. The print of the film was discovered by experts at EYE, the Dutch film museum, after old film cans were found in the cinema building in the town of Hattem which was due to be redeveloped. Bryony Dixon, silent film curator at the BFI archive, said it was a "major discovery".
