The 1934 British Classic Based On The Original Oscar Asche Stage Production
VCl is pleased to present this very rare 1934 British classic, based on the originaI Oscar Asche stage production which set records during its initiaI run of 2,238 performances at His Majesty's Theatre. Chu Chin Chow is entertainment on a generous scale, with an amazing story in the styIe of Arabian Nights, an exceptionaI cast, a splendid musical score and a bright and richIy mounted production. The movie is a musicaI reteIling of AIi Baba and the Forty Thieves, complete with fantastic tortures and haIf cIad slave girls. The production boasted lavish sets by Erno Metzner and cinematography by Max Greenbaum, both top artists from the German Expressionism era. The original film was 102 minutes long. lt was then cut by both British and American distributors to 93 minutes and finalIy to 78. VCI's release is a three disc box set containing the restoration of the original 102 minute version, along with the American version titIed AIi Baba Nights, and as a bonus, the very rare 1935 film Abdul the Damned starring Fritz Kortner, who played Abu Hassan in Chu Chin Chow. |
