The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1923) - what print is this from?
About 20 years ago, I remember stumbling upon footage of Quasimodo removing a bunch of candles from a trunk and putting them in a sack. At the time, I didn’t know much about the difference between the 16 mm show-at-home version — now the only one that’s still extant — and the 35 mm premiere version, so I brushed it aside.
Having rediscovered an interest in the film again, I managed to find the same footage, still online after all these years: https://www.gettyimages.dk/detail/video/quasimodo-taking-objects-from-trunk-holding-stock-video-footage/562-1
Now, this is obviously not “lost.” But what print is this from, exactly? From what I can gather now, it’s part of a cut scene in which Quasimodo trades the candles for clothes for Esmeralda. Nothing remains of this scene in any other version I’ve seen. Why has this clip never been reintegrated into the film (this scene seems to be documented pretty extensively by stills), and are there perhaps any other trims like this to be found?
