The Two Blind Men
This film is presumed lost.
The Mountain Eagle
Este é o segundo filme dirigido por Hitchcock, mas, que se saiba, não resta nenhuma cópia. Em Kentucky, Beatrice (Nita Naldi) é uma professora que recusa as abordagens do vilão Pettigrew (Bernhard Goetzke). Como vingança, ele inventa que ela teria molestado Edward (John Hamilton), um jovem retardado. Temendo a ira dos moradores da cidade, Beatrice se esconde nas montanhas, onde é acolhida pelo eremita Fear O God (Malcom Keen). Ele propõe um casamento de aparências para acalmar os ânimos das pessoas, mas os dois se afeiçoam e a união se torna real. Mas Pettigrew, ainda com ciúmes e raiva, arma novas mentiras para prejudicar os dois, dando continuidade a uma trama de intrigas, injustiças e reviravoltas. Apesar da história se passar nos Estados Unidos, o filme foi rodado nas montanhas da Áustria. Filme mudo.

The King of Charleston
Adventures of an elderly man surrounded by pretty young swimming girls at one of the Belgrade beaches.
The Devil Dancer
An English explorer disturbed by the practices of an isolated tribe attempts to rescue a native girl he has become fascinated with. THE DEVIL DANCER was highly praised at time of release for its exquisite cinematography, especially in the use of light and shadow. The film received an Academy Award nomination in this category. Sadly, it is among the lost. No prints or negatives are known to survive.
The Case of Sergeant Grischa
This film earned an Oscar nomination for Sound Recording. It is the only film nominated in this category that is among the lost. No negative or print material is known to have survived. Contemporary reviews were scathing, describing the film as a vastly overlong and boring talk-fest.
Os Quatro Diabos
The circus provides the backdrop for this melodrama that chronicles the lives of four children raised within the big top. Film historian and collector William K. Everson stated that the only surviving print was lost by actress Mary Duncan who had borrowed it from Fox Studios. In the December 1974 issue of "Films in Review," he explained that Mary Duncan, one of the film's stars, wanted it to show to a group of friends in Florida. The star was aware that it was a dangerous nitrate print and assumed that Fox had others. She threw the only copy in the ocean, a mistake characterized by Everson as "a monumental blunder to rank with Balaclava, Sarajevo, and the Fall of Babylon as one of history's blackest moments."
Alraune
It is a variation on the original legend of Alraune in which a Mad Scientist creates a beautiful but demonic child from the forced union between a woman and a Mandrake root. Not to be confused with the 1918 German version of Alraune.
The Golem
This mostly lost film (please check your attic) is often confused with director Paul Wegener third and readily available interpretation of the legend; Der Golem, wie er in die Welt kam (1920). In this version of the golem legend, the golem, a clay statue brought to life by Rabbi Loew in 16th century Prague to save the Jews from the ongoing brutal persecution by the city's rulers, is found in the rubble of an old synagogue in the 20th century. Brought to life by an antique dealer, the golem is used as a menial servant. Eventually falling in love with the dealer's wife, it goes on a murderous rampage when its love for her goes unanswered.
