I'm actually enjoying these more than I did the first time -- they're a movie record of a vanished world for sure, and Robert Harron's going to appear for the first time soon. Harron was highly charismatic and became one of the silent movies' finest actors before his tragic death (he shot himself, the press said accidentally, in the left lung the same day as the premiere of Way Down East, in which Griffith passed him over to give the lead to Richard Barthelmess, who was enjoying huge popularity from Henry King's masterpiece, Tol'able David). Speaking of actors, Griffith's wife Linda Arvidson is in a lot of these. She played Dollie's mother, the girl who eloped, and all kinds of bit parts.
