Homecoming

Homecoming is a 1928 German silent war drama film directed by Joe May and starring Lars Hanson, Dita Parlo, and Gustav Fröhlich. A sound version was prepared with the help of Paramount Pictures. While the sound version has no audible dialog, it was released with a synchronized musical score with sound effects using both the sound-on-disc and sound-on-film process. The sound version was more widely exhibited than the silent version due to the general public's apathy to silent films.
