Summary:
As one of the most iconic personalities of the silent film era, Rudolph Valentino achieved an unprecedented level of fame, due in part to his exotic good looks and a magnetic personality that leapt from the screen. His undeniable cultural resonance, coupled with his untimely death in August of 1926, has made him a recognizable and still-relevant figure throughout the world. The Valentino collection is the definitive video compilation featuring digital reconstructions of four previously unavailable Valentino films. A new digital reconstruction of two lost films: The young Rajah (1922) and Stolen moments (1920), featuring new musical scores by Jon Mirsalis, A society sensation (1918), featuring Bob Mitchell at the pipe organ, and Moran of the Lady Letty (1922), featuring a restoration of the films original intertitle text and tinting and a new score by Robert Israel. Directed by Phil Rosen, James Vincent, George Melford and Paul Powell.
