The 'Retour de Flamme' film collection took its name from the movement to save from the flames early films shot on highly flammable nitrate stock, and to bring these treasures of the cinema to the widest possible audience.

This collection contains the following short films, excerpts of films, outtakes, cartoons and advertisements: 'Art Home Swallows His Clarinet' (1912), 'The Cook' (1918), 'All This and Rabbit Stew' (1941), 'Love and Advertising' (1932), 'An Excursion to the Moon' (1908), 'La Samaritaine' (1930), 'Publi-Cine - six advertisements' (1935-1950), 'By Indian Post' (1919), 'Cyrano de Bergerac' (1900), 'Ain't She Sweet' (1933) and 'The Flight Around the World' (1924).
