Director Victor Halperin, like David Lynch many years later, knew that a constant insidious background sound (in this case the growling, creaking machinery) could almost become another character in the scene.

Video duration: 282 seconds

The only thing worse than the visual appearance of this Mr. Creosote lookalike is his sense of humour. But he can only have been a few years away at most from a fatal heart-attack.

Helen Burnell's ludicrous dancing style always brings the house down on the rare occasions that this film is shown in a cinema. With the Adelphi Girls, in Claude Friese-Greene colour.

ELSTREE CALLING, 1930: Donald Calthrop ELSTREE CALLING, 1930: Donald Calthrop
Posted by: terencenunn35

Video duration: 536 seconds

The best attempt at comedy in this film. A running gag about Calthrop being prevented by "the management" from performing Shakespeare. A very lively finale with Anna May Wong.

RHYMES by Jack Hylton Orchestra RHYMES by Jack Hylton Orchestra
Posted by: terencenunn35

Video duration: 326 seconds

Sung by (and possibly written by) Leslie Sarony. The original limericks were quite filthy, so this song was quite daring for 1932. No doubt everyone knew them and pretended they didn't.
