Edward Lorusso of Belgrade, Maine has launched a Kickstarter project to fund the purchase of Enchantment (1921) from the Library of Congress.

Since the cost of digitizing/copying a film is prohibitive for the individual, I’ve started this campaign to organize a collective effort to give this film back to the public [more]
