Description
Throughout the 1930s Jessie Matthews was Britain's best-loved musical film star, her dynamism and gamine charm captivating audiences on both sides of the Atlantic. With a string of box-office hits spotlighting her unique talent, it's easy to see how she became so popular – and why she remains so to this day.
Showcasing some the era's finest cinema talent – including director and comedy star (and Matthews' husband) Sonnie Hale, musical director Louis Levy and legendary art director Alfred Junge – the two films on this volume are presented as transfers from the original film elements, in their as-exhibited theatrical aspect ratios.
THE MAN FROM TORONTO (1933)
Leila and Fergus have never met, but when they are bequeathed a fortune there is a condition attached: they must marry each other within a year!
Black and White / 74 mins / 1.33:1 / Mono / English
HEAD OVER HEELS (1937)
An aspiring star must choose between an idle, selfish womaniser, and the faithful radio engineer who truly loves her.
Black and White / 79 mins / 1.33:1 / Mono / English
