Some times you have to shuck a lot of oysters to find a pearl. Some time you get lucky and find one in the first oyster.

Not sure if I would call a silent film studio sweeping "the cinematic discovery of the century" maybe a DAMN good ebay find though! Man wouldn't that positive feedback hurt for the seller? "thanks for selling me a 50 thousand dollar film for $5.68"
