early "Ukrainian" sound films?

[Prof Steven P Hill]

Dear Seelangs colleagues & Prof Dubinina (Brandeis):

I've read  about, and have even seen, some antique "East 
European" films restored by Brandeis and now available on 
video with good English subtitles, films that were actually 
directed by the legendary multi-ethnic director Edgar G 
Ulmer in New Jersey [sic].  Example: "Green Fields" (1938), 
spoken in Yiddish, and co-starring youthful American actor 
Herschel Bernardi as a fluent Yiddish-speaking teen-ager.

Here is my question, for anyone out there who might know. 
Are Mr Ulmer's 2 Ukrainian-speaking films, "Natalka Poltavka" 
('37) and "Cossack Beyond the Danube" ('39), now restored 
and available on video, along with Ulmer's other 1930s "New 
Jersey ethnic" films?   Or are Ulmer's 2 Ukrainian films now 
lost and gone forever?

Gratefully,
Steven P Hill,
University of Illinois.
