Why don't I have this kind of luck?

Pretty cool. Hey, let's all keep digging! I'd venture that most Loungers have the advantage of being interested in old relics of every sort, having the abitlity to recognize when something is unusual or noteworthy, and have the great resource of the other people here. It could happen!

There's been talk of the Hypnotist being found in various film vaults around the world for decades.... It's never been substantiated at this time, but the amount of incredible finds that have been unearthed certainly makes one wonder if the news could come any day! BTW - The Hypnotist was the working title for London After Midnight, probably the world's most sought after lost film starring Lon Chaney, Sr. & directed by Tod Browning.
