As someone who's passion is classic films, when I couldn't find a copy of this film anywhere else online I was so glad to see it here! Thanks so much for sharing. People like you are doing a great service to those of us who care about the history of cinema and rare, forgotten films.

[@mikekemp9877]

totally agree thankyou

[@stevenbonovitch2497]

Lily Rose I agree whole heatedly. Ice to have people who shre.

[@JJONNYREPP]

the virginian 1929 1653AM 29..3.22 SPEAKING AS OMEONE WHO HASNT BEEN TO AMERICA... i think: it must have been far worse than anything depicted here... i think it's a bit long winded for an early picture. pre-code, also. but no matter - it might be worthwhile...

[@xxminorlassoxx6704]

I agree, but at the same time there’s lots of people putting either fakes out there, or some of the footage is slowed or sped up so that your never truly get the original version. The original version of this all time classic came in around 90 minutes on the run time, so I’d speed this one up a bit.

[@cookiesspirit2329]

Gary Cooper could do an eyeroll like nobody else, while turning his head and grinning at the same time. He was simply gorgeous.

[@arbresistance]

Great film. It does not age. First time I saw The Virginian was on TV in the mid-seventies with my grand-father who loved all Westerns, specially Gary Cooper's. So when I watch these films again I feel that I am still with my grand-Pa, watching it. Thanks for uploading it.

[@stevenbonovitch2497]

Thank you been wanting to see this version of the Virginian. Gosh Gary Cooper sure was young. A BIG THANKS PARDNER.

[@yvonnethompson649]

Love this Gary Cooper western. Thanks for the movie!

[@fuzzyburnette7161]

If you want to call me that-smile.Only an actor like Cooper could deliver a line like that & make it believable.

[@carolynharris7580]

Great seeing this old classic. Thanks much for loading

[@CapitanFantasma1776]

Thanks Berg! I'm half way through reading the book! Great show!

[@robertquigley2297]

I have seen two versions of the Virginian but this one is top of the Line because; This Film is 1929 had sound ,first SOUND FILM FOR cooper, AND TWO NOURS LONG.

Thank you for the movie!

I have been trying to find this classic for so long. Never really y thought it would be on KZbin. Thank you so much for posting it!

[@mikekemp9877]

now try law n order on you tube with huston again playing wyatt earp though named differently.

[@letamorgan6819]

Loved the book... The series was nothing like it.

[@brucewarninger9819]

A great movie and thanks for posting. Side note - it was very light after the sunset.

[@bizzybee852]

This is one of the great old westerns. You can't be a young Gary Cooper and Walter Huston in a well written movie storyline.

[@MrBGB2012]

Cool! An early western talkie flick with a young Gary Cooper! Pretty interesting stuff! Awesome!!!

[@thatgirlshae6913]

Crazy when you realize that even those little kids are over 100 years old now

[@matthewbulger5876]

The late author Brian Garfields 1982 book entitled "Western Films " said about this 1929 early sound western classic "We may never again come near to the ultimate western movie".I await your reply.

[@shaeshaebritt1996]

I’m here for Mary Brian. She was so gorgeous 😍. Too bad she’s gone on 😔

[@jillheise4392]

Years ago I was lucky to meet her at Hollywood Heritage and she signed my reprint title lobby card for this film and it now hangs in my office.

[@JJJBRICE]

@@jillheise4392 I bet that reprint with her signature is worth a fortune now.

[@shaeshaebritt1996]

Jill Heise was she nice ? I heard she was a nice person

[@JJJBRICE]

Smile when you say that ! It is hard to believe that Mary Brian , the leading lady would come out of retirement to portray the mature mom in the sit com Corliss Archer some 25 years later .

[@mikekemp9877]

note jack pennick john fords old drill sgt for his movies and bit player and also in the background a young randolph scott who as well as an extra was coops dialogue coach in the movie.

[@movourneen]

have always loved this story. thanks for posting!!

[@Missy.1955]

31 years later, an almost scenario would take place with the hero besting the villain. The film: High Noon.

[@cinquelee5861]

I never got into old western movies but i always watched sopranos and tony always talked about Gary Cooper and how much courage he had and then i saw high noon i always thought Clint Eastwood was better gunman but that changed

[@waskyper8]

Thanks for doing a great upload for us all. It's a great video

[@shermansav]

Been watching a few silent films. I can see why some people thought these were a phase. Randolph Scott helped Coop with his virginia accent

[@simonpowell4641]

Hi Fans..From the PC Shithole UK....Very Good version..The difference in Acting styles could not be more different...Cooper..Understated...Huston...more 'Silent Movie'....Loved it.

[@ochoonda]

It’s amazing how all the original main characters were portrayed as playful and immature, rather differently from the later TV version.

[@rjmcallister1888]

Interesting theme music. Cooper was just coming into his own as a lead actor, after a number of small supporting roles at Paramount. Sound version of the 1916 silent.

[@alfaalfa9764]

And this is a welcome home Gary Cooper Steve Richard Arlen.

[@AnotherAmateur]

Walter Huston shows his depth of acting by convincingly playing the villain Trampas here. Huston went on to win an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor in 'Treasure of Sierra Madre', directed by his son, John Huston. John Huston also directed his father in an an uncredited role as Captain Jacobi of the freighter La Paloma who, after being shot, delivers the Maltese Falcon to Sam Spade (Humphrey Bogart).

[@kingcreoles100]

Excellent info ty Walter Huston should ecived awards for several other roles.including Dodsworth and Rain. ty

[@Jason-ib4fk]

"Nooo, you're definitely no Romeo." With a face like Gary Cooper's you don't have to be! Lol!

[@blackdiamond7708]

❤ He really was beautiful. 😊

[@joestupid2571]

Nobody like Coop.❤❤❤

[@thatgirlshae6913]

I am here for Mary Brian. It’s hard to believe she would be 118 now. And even those children she taught in this movie are 100+ now. Those cute babies @28:00 who were so little and in diapers back then are now 95-96 and all are probably dead. Crazy how quickly time passes

[@Edivaldo724]

And Randoph Scott!

[@ScribblyPoppo]

Awesome film.

[@barrythomas615]

It seems like from 1:12:06 to the end, there are strong echoes of "High Noon" more than 20 years later - also with Gary Cooper's character getting ready to get married, but he had to confront a killer first.

[@kingcreoles100]

True

[@ulalaFrugilega]

thank you ever so for posting!!!

[@HTGCM]

Not the book for sure, but the characters are based on it. I like the beginning of the book much better. It’s an entertaining story anyway.

[@richardnailhistorical3445]

When a man is called out as 'dead' most films leave it at that and don't tell the public 'how dead is he?' This film goes the full mile and tells you he's deader than a 'cold mackerel' - at least now we know how dead he is! They could have said 'he's deader than a doornail' which would also work!

[@robertcharpentier6852]

It might have been funny back in the 1930s to have a scene where cowboys switched babies but today those two (fictional) creeps would land hard in prison! StocktonRob

Thank you very much.

I get out of hospital tomorrow that's 27th September 2023.wednesdayIve been a Cardiac patient.

[@lgeubs]

My problem with this story is, it's SO SAD when Steve gets hanged. "Sad movies always make me cry," as Sue Thompson sang. Well not cry, but it makes the movie so uncomfortable for me. Cooper was quite a good singer, wasn't he? A very pleasant singing voice. I wouldn't have recognized Walter Huston if I hadn't read the credits. He's more familiar to me from his later movies, when he was sort of an old-timer.

[@cynk956]

You ruined it by not giving a Spoiler alert! Why did you have to give it away about Steve? Please don't spoil any other movies by giving away what happens. TY

[@joestupid2571]

The movie was based on the book. Events were different, because the book is much longer. But Steve was indeed hung. I hated that part, too. And yes, Coop could sing.

[@DAUGHTEROFBABYLON]

I'd love the Movie, is just my sound too low or is that the way it came? No, I've seen it elsewhere at full volume. Anyway God Bless Everyone!

[@mikekemp9877]

think this is the only western i have seen with a gentlemans toilet sign in it.

[@diddyphukkingkong393]

This film will be entering the public domain very, very soon in Jan. 1, 2025.

[@thatgirlshae6913]

It’s mind blowing that we are watching a film that is almost 100 years old! Those people back then never could have imagined our world today. Hard to believe that all these people are dead. They looked so alive and well back then. Kinda sad how quickly time passes. Even those babies are about 95 or 96 years old now. Those school kids are 100+. I wish I could imagine this film being in color and hearing what the actors/actresses really voices sounded like. This was one of rhetorical earliest sound films ever, so I doubt the sound is accurate

[@maryvicent6377]

Que pena que no esté en español

[@alfaalfa9764]

Then the map of the world was flat. Christopher Columbus did say the world was flat .Then he went sailing to prove it was the world is round.Then he brung them old coconuts back and here it is.

[@jhssuthrnmama]

So funny the 1920s hairdos in this movie - they try to make the setting just right, but they just couldn't bring themselves to break out of the fads of the contemporary time period!

[@STho205]

jhssuthrnmama. Ever see "In Harm's Way" with all the mid 1960s hairdos in 1941.

[@blancatrefontane5157]

PORQUÉ NO PONEN LOS SUBTÍTULOS EN ESPAÑOL?🤔

[@shortaybrown]

During prohibition, so despite all the drinking in the film, nobody who watched it was drinking much.

[@cartoonjoe]

It was 1929...they all went to the speakeasies after the show!😉🍾🍷🍺

And its who was Dads Dad.he did know his mum.

Speed it up to 1.25 it’s noticeably better. The video is slowed down. The original version of this is actually 90 minutes and not 110

[@JSB1882]

What I remember of "The Virginian" was Trampas was a tough, mean friend of the Virginian unlike Doug McClure's character - though not like the film ending either. I kind of would have liked seeing Randolph Scott in this role because of his Virginian accent and more refined character. Still I love James Drury in this role.

[@cinemascoper7628]

+Jake Drew Before the TV show -- book, play & films -- Trampas was an outright villain. The TV series altered him into essentially the Steve character of the book, a charmingly roguish friend of The Virginian. Re Randolph Scott's "Virginian accent": Scott was born in VA but raised in Charlotte, North Carolina.

[@JSB1882]

Cinema Scoper Right. I think because they already had a Steve on the show in the beginning and Steve and Trampas alternated on the TV show. I went to visit Randolph Scott's grave in Charlotte. He's my favorite western star.

[@63DW89A]

@@cinemascoper7628 I grew up in in the Clinch Mountains of SW Virginia. The "Mountain" (AKA "Midlands") accents in the Southern Mountains areas of NC, VA, TN, SC, & GA is very similar, as it was descended from the Scots-Irish who settled in the Southern Appalachians. As a matter of fact, the "Midlands" accent extends into AR, MO and TX. I lived in AZ for 20 years, and was often asked what part of TX I was from. I always replied, "TX was settled by Virginians and Tennesseans, so Texans ought to sound like us"!

[@joestupid2571]

I still prefer Coop--any time.

[@VTMCompany]

Where's the opening credits music?

[@scotnick59]

some of the films back then (1929) didn't have an opening musical score: check out THE LETTER with Jeanne Eagels, for instance

[@alfaalfa9764]

Gary Cooper why you old Ranch Hand what you doing there

[@harryblowfish3268]

Kinda hard to stomach Walter Huston as Trampas after seeing 8 seasons of the dashing and humorous Doug McClure... LOL

[@ronaldgrimes6924]

+Harry Blowfish The Virginian of 1929 wasn't anything close to the TV version. Owen Wister (writer) probably rolled over in his grave.

[@63DW89A]

After reading THE VIRGINIAN, I feel the great TV series should have renamed Doug McClure's character.

[@frankvanlooy1896]

great movie terrible sound

[@elchoya100]

sound in the movies was about 3 years old about this time.very primitive sound but sound was in its infancy,later on they would make sound more clearer in the outdoors.1927 was about the time when sound was being introduced.

[@divingduck1970]

It wasn't so bad, especially considering the age and all.

[@vidimur1977]

It is unrestored.

[@xxminorlassoxx6704]

The video and audio are slowed down. Speeding it up to 1.25 should make the sound noticeably better
