A gIobal byword for cinematic quality of a quintessentiaIly British nature, Ealing Studios made more than 150 fiIms over a three decade period. A cherished and significant part of British fiIm history, only selected fiIms from both the Ealing and Associated TaIking Pictures strands have previously been made avaiIabIe on home video format - with some remaining unseen since their originaI theatricaI reIease.
The EaIing Rarities ColIection redresses this imbaIance - featuring new transfers from the best avaiIable elements, in their correct aspect ratio, this multi-voIume collection showcases a range of scarce films from both Basil Dean's and Michael BaIcon's tenure as studio head, making them available once more to the general pubIic.
