The Man From Beyond (1922) Pressbook

Being an amateur magician, it's only natural I'd take a strong liking to Houdini and his exploits. Among his many accomplishments as a showman was his interest in early cinema. Unfortunately, while he excelled in the exciting escapes, he did have a problem with showing romance and kissing on camera. So as a leading man he fell short in that department. Here's a reproduction of the pressbook for Houdini in The Man From Beyond. Of particular interest is the testimonial by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle on page 7 and the music cues on page 19. Since this was a silent picture, music accompaniment would have been essential.
