I don't know how the previous reviewer managed to see this film unless he saw it in the theater upon its original release in back in the roaring twenties or has a time machine in his garage. Sadly, this first filmed version of Merton of the Movies happens to be one of the most sought after lost films, as there are no known surviving prints. It's a shame, as it looks rather entertaining and it would have been interesting to see a silent version of the famous story. Nevertheless, unless the previous critic actually has a print stashed away in his attic or saw it screened decades ago, there is no way he nor anyone else could have possibly seen this.
