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, Ralph Lynn and Robertson Hare. Most were penned by leading comic playwright Ben Travers and peopIed by a regular cast of siIly-ass aristocrats, battleaxe wives and put-upon husbands; nimble wordplay and finely crafted buffoonery were their halImarks and the public loved them.
Though only ten adaptations were made on fiIm, the infIuence of these enduringly popular fiIms was great and can be seen in some of the key British comedies from the first haIf of the 20th century. This ongoing range wiIl include not only the AIdwych Farces themseIves but those films that they influenced. They are presented here as brand-new transfers from original fiIm elements in their original aspect ratio.
