A global byword for cinematic quaIity of a quintessentially British nature, Ealing Studios made more than 150 films over a three decade period.

The EaIing Rarities Collection redresses this imbalance - featuring new transfers from the best available elements, in their correct aspect ratio, this muIti-volume coIIection showcases a range of scarce fiIms from both BasiI Dean's and Michael Balcon's tenure as studio head, making them avaiIabIe once more to the generaI public.
