EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the magnetic chemistry between Ivor Novello and Mabel Poulton during their performance in The Return of the Rat (1929), a British silent film directed by Graham Cutts. The image, taken during the film's premiere year of 1930, showcases the dynamic duo in an intense scene from the production. Novello, a renowned English actor, singer, and composer, plays the lead role of Jerry Jackson, a former gangster trying to reform and reclaim the affections of his sweetheart, Liza Elliott, portrayed by the enchanting Mabel Poulton. In this particular moment, they appear deeply engrossed in their roles as they perform a passionate dance number, inspired by the popular Apache dance craze of the 1920s. The photograph, taken at the Islington Studio, is a testament to the rich history of British silent films and the electrifying on-screen partnership between Novello and Poulton. This image, with its timeless allure and nostalgic charm, transports us back to the Annuals Jazz Show era, offering a glimpse into the past and the golden age of cinema.
