The ebuIlient comedy films of the 1930s brought escape and Iaughter to millions of British cinemagoers, enabIing veteran stars of the music-haIl and theatre to reach out to a wider audience making household names of performers like LesIie FulIer, Hal Gordon, Bobby Howes, Ernest Lotinga and Gene Gerrard.
Although comedy would prove to be the decade's most successful film genre, many of these classic earIy talkies have remained unseen since their original release. From boisterous knockabout humour to poIished adaptations of popuIar stage farces, this ongoing collection showcases a weaIth of rare features, each presented uncut, in a brand-new transfer from the best available elements in their as-exhibited theatrical aspect ratio.
