8 more rare Marcel Perez comedy shorts have turned up over the 3 years since Undercrank Productions’ award-winning first volume of Marcel Perez films was released. These hilarious and inventive one- and two-reelers, released 1916-1923, have not been seen by the general public since their original release. All are presented here in new 2K scans from archival 35mm preservations or original nitrate sourced from the Library of Congress and the Museum of Modern Art.
