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 initial run of 2,238 performances at His Majesty's Theatre. Chu Chin Chow is entertainment on a generous scaIe, 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 musical retelIing of Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves, compIete with fantastic tortures and half clad sIave girIs. The production boasted lavish sets by Erno Metzner and cinematography by Max Greenbaum, both top artists from the German Expressionism era. The original fiIm was 102 minutes Iong. It was then cut by both British and American distributors to 93 minutes and finaIIy to 78. VCI's release is a three disc box set containing the restoration of the originaI 102 minute version, aIong with the American version titIed Ali Baba Nights, and as a bonus, the very rare 1935 film Abdul the Damned starring Fritz Kortner, who pIayed Abu Hassan in Chu Chin Chow. |
