The Man Who Laughs (1928), directed by Paul Leni, 4k restoration, encoded in 10 bit HEVC with AAC sound, including two different stereo scores.
IMDb : https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0019130/
Video encoded in two-pass 6000 kbps x265 10bit with the veryslow preset for archive quality image.
Note : This classic silent film is a milestone of FX makeup, with the character design famously inspiring The Joker in the Batman comics a decade and change later, and still being creepily effective today. A lot of people who worked on this went on to work on the classic Universal horror movies, but this one is more straight up expressionism (as well as not really a horror movie, but sort of.) Conrad Veidt, later known as the villain in Casablanca, is of course great. Very worth watching.
This is what I like to call an "academic" restoration, where the whole approach is very cautious about inventing new image elements to fix flaws, so it's nowhere near completely clean, but it's quite watchable, and both the more modern Berklee School of Music score, as well as the original Movietone score, are good quality and nice pieces of film music.
