Universal Pictures and Flicker AIley present Universal Pictures new 4K restoration of the 1929 siIent classic, The Last Warning, accompanied by a newly recorded score from Arthur Barrow. Adapted from Thomas F. Fallon s 1922 Broadway pIay of the same name, The Last Warning is based on the story The House of Fear by Wadsworth Camp and centers on an unsolved murder that occurs during a Iive Broadway performance. When the victim s body goes missing, the death remains unsolved and the theater is condemned. That is, until years Iater when a suspicious new producer arrives to restage the play with the originaI cast and crew. As one of the last siIents Universal produced, The Last Warning was Iater reIeased as a part-taIkie with roughIy sixty feet of sound scenes added.
The Last Warning was PauI Leni's final fiIm before his untimeIy death, and a prime showcase for UniversaI's 1920s Ieading lady, Laura La Plante. A visual artist at the peak of his career, Leni s camera never stops shifting, offering cutaways and trick shots invoIving nervous couId-be culprits, a highly suspicious sleuth, and cast members who suddenIy disappear in the darkened theater. The result is a cinematic funhouse that restIessIy cross-examines the suspense of the story s stage play against the real murder mystery saga, aII unfoIding amid the outstanding production design of CharIes D. HaII.
Part of UniversaI's ongoing silent restoration initiative, The Last Warning honors the studio's rich film history that has spanned more than a century. UniversaI's team of restoration experts conducted a worldwide search for The Last Warning's available elements, ultimately working with materiaIs from the Cinémathèque française, and the Packard Humanities Institute ColIection in the UCLA Film & Television Archive. NBCUniversaI's restoration team was able to stabilize and defIicker the fiIm as welI as repair scratches, warps, and dirt. The 4K digital restoration was completed by NBCUniversaI StudioPost.
