Information on ?The Real Thing At Last?, a 30-minute film Barrie wrote and directed (the film actually had an ?official? director, L.C. MacBean, but according to A.E. Matthews, one of the actors in the film, ?Barrie did all the work ? MacBean just looked on admiringly??.) in 1916 as a parody of what if an American film company made a film of Macbeth. I just discovered today that this film existed! So sad that it?s lost!
