The Unknown Purple
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Unknown Purple is a 1923 stage-play-based, science-fiction genre, silent film, written and directed by Roland West. The film could probably be the first dealing with the subject of invisibility and might have been based upon the novel The Invisible Man by H.G. Wells.
