The Ealing Studios Rarities Collection - Volume 10 (DVD)

A global byword for cinematic quality of a quintessentially British nature, Ealing Studios made more than 150 films over a three decade period. A cherished and significant part of British film history, only selected films from both the Ealing and Associated Talking Pictures strands have previously been made available on home video format - with some remaining unseen since their original theatrical release. The Ealing Rarities Collection redresses this imbalance - featuring new transfers from the best available elements, in their correct aspect ratio, this multi-volume collection showcases a range of scarce films from both Basil Dean's and Michael Balcon's tenure as studio head, making them available once more to the general public. LET'S BE FAMOUS (1939): Village shopkeeper Jimmy fancies himself as a great singer
when he catches the attention of a passing BBC official, his dream seems to be within reach... THE DIVIDED HEART (1954): A multiple BAFTA-award winner based on the true story of a German couple who adopt a boy thought to be a war orphan, and the mother who desperately wants him back. HIS EXCELLENCY (1952): Yorkshire ex-docker George Harrison is appointed governor of a Mediterranean island
it stuns the aristocracy, interests the artisans and disturbs the double-dealers... SALOON BAR (1940): On the night before the planned execution of a man convicted of murder, can bookie and amateur sleuth Joe Harris unravel the mystery of who really killed Mrs Truscott?
