I recently downloaded and edited this film thinking it was PD, removed the subtitles, added voice overs and sound FX, but after putting up a few excerpts it got flagged on Youtube as matching 3rd party content, as though it is under copyright. Any advice as to where i can obtain a legal copy or who has the original masters ? IMDB says Paramount but it is all kind of grey. Update April 26 2010 - Thanks Eastside ! silentmovieguy A masterpiece but what about the copyright ? silentmovieguy 2010-04-26 17:44:51 2010-01-28 16:56:33 5 When I try to download the Jekyll and Hyde movie, I get timed out by Yahooie.

YouTube was confusing this version with another version under copyright. Definitely PD Eastside Kidd 2010-04-16 04:30:54 2010-04-16 04:30:54 4 Anything published before 1923 should be in the Public Domain. Pre-1923 = Public Domain agredon 2011-06-04 03:44:07 2011-06-04 03:44:07 0 WHAT HAPPENED TO THE TITLE? HELP!!! fleabag2 2011-10-07 19:35:45 2011-10-07 19:35:45 0 I ahve yet to see this movie, but reading the coments i got interested in that version silentguy said he did... Its an idea that has been in my head for some time, to "rework" the public domain silent movies into creative commons licensed movies with sound effects and either subtitles (instead of the dialogues being shown in cutouts) or have someone voicing over... Wonder what it would be! I will download it now and maybe give a review later. Anway, would love to see the reowkred version that you did, SilentGuy ;D Why not add your version silentguy?
