Release

La voce senza volto was distributed theatrically in Italy by Juventus Film on January 5, 1939.[1] Film historian and critic Roberto Curti noted that the current prints of the film in Italy suffer from soundtrack damage, and feature voice work that was re-dubbed onto the film with contemporary dialogue.[2]

gollark: I mean, it sort of works, but game streaming isn't very good over non-local connections, and not great over those.
