Flicker Alley celebrates their 50th release with the home video premiere of the silent drama Children of Divorce.

Starring Gary Cooper during his silent film career and 'It' Girl Clara Bow, Children of Divorce is receiving a 4K restoration for its debut.

This will be a Blu-Ray / DVD Combo pack. Bonus content is below.

Children of Divorce will be available here at ClassicFlix on December 6th.

Almost 15 years after the release of its first publication, Flicker Alley, in partnership with the Blackhawk Films Collection, is proud to celebrate 50 fully-published titles with the Blu-ray/DVD world premiere of Children of Divorce, starring Clara Bow and Gary Cooper.

The film begins in an American 'divorce colony' in Paris after the First World War, where parents would leave their children for months at a time. Jean, Kitty, and Ted meet there as children and become fast friends. Years later, in America, when wealthy Ted (Gary Cooper) reconnects with Jean (Esther Ralston), the two fall deeply in love, vowing to fulfill a childhood promise to one day marry each other. But true love and the most innocent of plans are no match for the scheming Kitty-played by the original Hollywood 'It' girl, Clara Bow-who targets Ted for his fortune. After a night of drunken revelry, Ted wakes up to find he has unwittingly married Kitty. This unfortunate turn of events, however, carries with it the traumatized pasts of the three players, whose views of marriage have been shaped as children of divorce.

Sourced from the original nitrate negative held by the Library of Congress, as well as their 1969 fine grain master, this new restoration of Children of Divorce was scanned in 4K resolution, and represents over 200 hours of laboratory work by the Library of Congress in order to create the best version possible. Though some deterioration remains, this is the first time the film has ever been released on home video, allowing audiences to enjoy a rare viewing of classic performances from two of early cinema's most recognizable stars.

Flicker Alley is delighted to reach the milestone of its 50^th publication with Children of Divorce. This Blu-ray/DVD dual-format edition features a new score by the Mont Alto Motion Picture Orchestra, and was made possible thanks to the Blackhawk Films Collection, Paramount Pictures, and the Library of Congress.
