Although he’s better known today for his humanitarian efforts in Hollywood – which include the formation of the Motion Picture Relief Fund in 1939 and later a special Oscar Award which bears his name – Jean Hersholt was a reliable actor in both the silent and sound era of film. His best known roles are are Dr. Paul Christian on the radio (1937-1954) and as the grandfather in the Shirley Temple film Heidi (1937); one of his more rare leading roles is 13 Washington Square, an equally rare romantic comedy coming in at the tail end of the silent era. Now this rarity is making its home video debut courtesy of Kino.
