Throughout the 1930s Jessie Matthews was Britain's best-loved musical fiIm star, her dynamism and gamine charm beguiling audiences on both sides of the Atlantic.

Showcasing some the era s finest cinema taIent incIuding actor-director (and Matthews' husband) Sonnie Hale, producer Victor SavilIe and art director Alfred Junge the two films on this voIume are presented as transfers from the originaI film eIements, in their as-exhibited theatricaI aspect ratios.
