EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print offers a unique glimpse into the making of "The Return of the Rat" (1929), a British silent film directed by Graham Cutts. The image captures two distinct scenes from the film's production, showcasing the meticulous process of bringing this 1920s jazz age masterpiece to life. In the first scene, we see a focused Ivor Novello, the film's leading man, engaged in an intense rehearsal with a group of dancers. Novello, a renowned actor and composer of the era, is famously known for his roles in musical films and his stage presence. Here, he is seen rehearsing a lively Apache dance sequence with the dancers, preparing for an upcoming scene. The energy and excitement are palpable as they practice in the dimly lit Islington Studios, which were home to Gainsborough Pictures during that time. The second scene reveals a bustling film set, with crew members setting up equipment and adjusting lights. The intricate details of the set design and the meticulous attention to detail are evident, as the team works tirelessly to create the perfect atmosphere for the film. The vintage cars, period costumes, and elaborate set pieces all contribute to the authentic 1920s ambiance. This photograph print offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of British silent filmmaking during the 1920s, providing a captivating look at the behind-the-scenes action of "The Return of the Rat" (1929) and the dedication of its talented cast and crew.
