BTW, there was also a film around 1921 on the Point Loma "white city" as I have read once in a Point Loma magazine.
I was unable to get it until now.
Perhaps someone has an idea how to get the film and upload it on youtube, too.
And the lost New York record with the voices of Blavatsky, Judge, Olcott...:-)

You may want to search for Colonel Henry Steel Olcott in film category.
Perhaps it is in their archives. There was also a litigation about the
legality of restricting the show of films in the USA.
