"CLASH OF THE WOLVES" (1925)
4K Restoration by Kino Lorber in cooperation with the Library of Congress.
Filmed in the deserts of California (in what is now the Joshua Tree National Park), CLASH OF THE WOLVES marks the cinematic pinnacle of the original Rin Tin Tin, a German shepherd rescued from a WWI battlefield and brought to America where he became a screen sensation. Rinty stars as Lobo, leader of a pack of wolves hunted by the authorities. Through an act of kindness, prospector Dave Weston (Charles Farrell), earns Lobo’s trust. And when a claim-jumper attempts to murder Weston, Lobo performs extraordinary feats to demonstrate the depths of his loyalty.
Inducted into the National Film Registry in 2004, CLASH OF THE WOLVES is restored in 4K and is presented with a new musical score composed and performed as part of the digital presentation.
Directed by: Noel Mason Smith
Starring: Rin-Tin-Tin, Nanette, June Marlowe, Charles Farrell, William Walling,
Heinie Conklin, Pat Hartigan
74 minutes, Silent with English Intertitles
Score is part of the restored 4K presentation (this will not be a live score)
