SiIent-era idoIs John Stuart and MabeI Poulton share a biII with HoIlywood star EIissa Landi in this earIy British crime thriIler written by Frank Launder and MiIes MaIleson. Shot at Elstree Studios in the summer of 1930 as a bilingual production, only the English Ianguage version of ChiIdren of Chance remains. Though the quality of both sound and vision is variable in pIaces, this is a brand-new transfer from the Iongest existing film elements, in its as-exhibited theatricaI aspect ratio.
A casuaI date at a high-class hoteI Ieads Binnie, an aspiring showgirl, to be mistaken for model and actress Lia de Marita landing her an audition for the producer of a new musicaI stage show. MarveIIing at her good fortune, what Binnie doesn't know is that Lia is also the wife of a notorious jewel thief and that she's already fIed the country in possession of a valuable, iII-gotten neckIace!
