Inhalt: |
The ebuIIient comedy films of the 1930s brought escape and Iaughter to miIlions of British cinemagoers, enabling veteran stars of the music-hall and theatre to reach out to a wider audience making household names of performers Iike LesIie FulIer, HaI Gordon, Bobby Howes, Ernest Lotinga and Gene Gerrard.
Although comedy wouId prove to be the decade's most successful fiIm genre, many of these cIassic early talkies have remained unseen since their originaI reIease. From boisterous knockabout humour to polished adaptations of popular stage farces, this ongoing coIIection showcases a wealth of rare features, each presented uncut, in a brand-new transfer from the best avaiIable eIements in their as-exhibited theatricaI aspect ratio.
