EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the golden era of filmmaking in London's Gainsborough film studios. The year is 1928, and a drama film titled "City of Play" is being brought to life by an unknown creator. As we gaze at this historic image, our eyes are drawn to the actors and crew members immersed in their roles. The atmosphere on set is palpable as we notice a microphone suspended above one actor's head, symbolizing the transition from silent films to sound. This technological advancement revolutionized cinema forever, allowing audiences to hear dialogue and immerse themselves even deeper into the story unfolding before them. Directed by Denison Clift and produced by Michael Balcon, "City of Play" boasted a talented cast including Chili Bouchier, Patrick Aherne, and Lawson Butt. It was a significant production for its time as it embraced both silent scenes and sound recording techniques. As we delve into this snapshot from history through "The Silver Jubilee Book - The Story of 25 Eventful Years in Pictures" published by Odhams Press Ltd. in 1935, we can't help but marvel at how far technology has come since then. Yet there remains something magical about these early cinematic endeavors that continue to captivate us today.
