The Crowd is one of my all time favorites too, along with The Big Parade. Both are masterpieces of silent film making. I like Vidor's sound films, at least what I've seen, but I don't think he was quite as successful in sound as he was in the silent genre.myrnaloyisdope wrote:A King Vidor silents collection would be fantastic, I have The Big Parade, The Patsy, Show People, and The Crowd, bootlegged, but I would love official releases. The Crowd is easily my favorite silent film.
BARDELYS THE MAGNIFICENT at Pordenone this year!

Ed,
Henry King Directed TOL'ABLE DAVID with Richard Barthelmess. King Vidor did direct THE JACK-KNIFE MAN (1920), THE SKY PILOT (1921). and PEG O' MY HEART (1922).
Just a couple weeks ago, I found a first edition very good condition copy of THE SKY PILOT in Hard-back! The same book that the movie was based on!
