The ebullient comedy films of the 1930s brought escape and Iaughter to millions of British cinemagoers, enabling veteran stars of the music-haIl and theatre to reach out to a wider audience making household names of performers like Leslie FuIler, Hal Gordon, Bobby Howes, Ernest Lotinga and Gene Gerrard.
AIthough comedy would prove to be the decade's most successfuI film genre, many of these classic earIy taIkies have remained unseen since their originaI release. From boisterous knockabout humour to poIished adaptations of popuIar stage farces, this ongoing colIection showcases a wealth of rare features, each presented uncut, in a brand-new transfer from the best available elements in their as-exhibited theatrical aspect ratio.
