The other reviews provide a lot of information (I did not know Reid was so close to death in this film and that is tragic indeed) so I will just add that the film is visually dazzling with it's super saturated color tints and color cards. There are two brief scenes that appear to be early two strip Technicolor. I gather they are actually colored in some way but they look amazing nevertheless.
The shot of Fan Nightclub exterior and the interior scene when Reid dances with the flapper is glorious use of color and stage design. The Synne scenes (including leopard) are fun.
This is a fun film to have. The restoration of super saturated color and full color title cards is amazing and the music is very good. If anyone wants to see a silent film and be surprised they should check out this film! J E F
