Notes from the DVD Release
The Film DR. MABUSE, THE GAMBLER. PART ONE: THE GREAT GAMBLER. A PICTURE OF OUR TIME was first shown on 27 April 1922 in Berlin. The reconstruction was made on the basis of two camera negatives - one of the German and one of the foreign distribution version. The intertitles were, as far as they were present, taken from the negatives. Missing, faulty or non-usable titles were completed, corrected or restored using the censor card.Restoration and reconstruction took place in 2000 as a co-operation between the film archive of the German Federal Archive (Bundesarchiv-Filmarchiv), Berlin, the Filmmuseum München, and the Friedrich-Wilhelm-Murnau-Stiftung, Wiesbaden. The present version follows a copy compiled by the Filmmuseum München from the two mentioned negatives and a copy of the Gosfilmofond film archive in Moscow.
