Featured review
Creaky, Stagey, but still of interest
I cannot pretend for one instant that this film will make you want to rush to see it again, or even watch past the first reel, but contrary to the previous damming reviews, it stands as an historical document, and for that be grateful.
It is no use reviewing such a film with modern eyes and ears, times were very different, and this sort of fare was very popular at the time as audiences knew the artists concerned from trips to the music halls and theatres, and contrary to what one previous reviewer states, to people who know about the history of variety, many of the names are well known. However, that is a separate issue.
I am grateful to have seen this as a novelty, and any film with Anne Ziegler & Webster Booth is worth a watch. Like anything we can have available, if you don't like it, switch off, but don't damn with faint praise if you haven't a clue what you're talking about!
