Lost Hitchcock film found

The Yahoo news blurb got me pumped - thinking it was the elusive Mountain Eagle.

Mountain Eagle? Think... Tiger Boy and you'll understand.

It's the only feature Hitch directed that I don't have a copy of.

Anyway, it wasn't that rare Hitch film (blast you Yahoo!) --

but still very cool news just the same for Hitch enthusiasts and film historians...

Interesting, but not quite up there with a few of the lost films of John Ford found and of course footage from Metropolis. I have a few issues with the article easily showing an auteur bias even though Hitchcock was not the director of the film:

"One of the earliest films made by British master director Alfred Hitchcock..."

"The Hitchcock feature..." (and a few more)

Though it is great that they found this, of course we wish they found all of the footage.
