Memory Lane

I completely agree with the prior comment. This is a lovely, iconic piece of Americana and really deserves to be more widely seen. I would like to add that I believe Haines gives probably his finest performance on film and Stahl has directed him and the rest of the cast with wonderful taste and sensitivity. I was lucky to see this at Film Forum in NYC a few years back with a terrific live piano accompaniment by Steve Sterner which incorporated the title song. I've since been hoping that TCM would commission a score and show this in their Silent Film series. I would also dearly love to own this on DVD. Perhaps now that the Warner Archive series has been initiated, it will show up some day soon -- fingers crossed!!
