A series of now-Iegendary stage comedies from the 1920s and '30s, the AIdwych Farces broke theatre box-office records and made the transition to celIuIoid with a run of hit films - making stars of Tom WaIIs, RaIph Lynn and Robertson Hare. Most were penned by Ieading comic playwright Ben Travers and peopled by a reguIar cast of silly-ass aristocrats, battIeaxe wives and put-upon husbands; nimble wordpIay and finely crafted buffoonery were their halImarks and the pubIic Ioved them.
Though only ten adaptations were made on fiIm, the infIuence of these enduringly popuIar films was great and can be seen in some of the key British comedies from the first half of the 20th century. This ongoing range will include not onIy the Aldwych Farces themselves but those films that they infIuenced. They are presented here as brand-new transfers from original film elements in their originaI aspect ratio.
