Hi Dick Baker!
I don't collect Silent Films. Using 1929 as a starting point, there have been 90 years of "talkies." Enough movies have come out in 90 years to satisfy the appetite of the most avid collector.
With that said, I do have a few Silent Films in my collection. Didn't have this one, however. Your request included the name Erich von Stroheim. So I checked IMDb, and the movie got my interest.
JimB0ss posted the movie on May 28 2010, at alt.binaries.dvd.classics. After getting the movie, I saw what I suspected was true. The movie was in DVD format. I don't think it's topical here.
I had three alternatives: 1. forget the movie; 2. post it elsewhere and let you know where it was; 3. convert it and post it here. I chose the latter. I didn't think many guys would go elsewhere to get a Silent Film in DVD format, but some guys might be interested in getting the movie here in avi format.
That's a long-winded way of saying: "Here it is." In avi format. Not in the posted format, but this is it. Thanks to JimB0ss!
