    That’s Entertainment 2

    A sequel that was for me just a little disappointing. The original was still selling very well and it was inevitable that Derek would ask Ken Films to apply for the OK from MGM. Unlike the original we released this as a 4×600′.  Label was designed by Dave Worrall and was printed out. Label courtesy…

    Although this British comedy had previously been available as an edited feature from Walton Films, Derek was confident that if released in colour it would be a ‘winner’. It was released as a 600′ (don’t recall a feature) it was a great success and continued to sell until we closed the doors.  Label, which was…

    World Cup Munich

    by

    This was something of a trial for ourselves, sport in general wasn’t something we traded in. As far as I can recall we issued four games to test the water so to speak. However I believe that was all that ever appeared. Label was designed by Marianne Frost and printed inhouse by myself. Label courtesy…

    The Sea Hawk #2

    by

    The quality of our black and white prints of this magnificent Errol Flynn swashbuckler was out of this world, as were the majority of the films that we issued from United Artists. UA themselves felt they were special when we presented them with the new plastic clamshell cases and the classy label, which was designed…

    Carry On Girls

    by

    Another of the numerous films we issued from Rank Film Distributors following their decision to give us carte blanche on almost any title we came across. The carry on’s were always a safe bet but it was still decided to produce a generic label and then just drop in the film title. Label designed by…

    Bugsy Malone

    by

    Another of the numerous films we issued from Rank Film Distributors follwing their desision to give us carte blanche on almost any title we came across. Although this title had previously been available from Walton films as a 4×400′ it didn’t seem to hinder the sales of this full length feature. Label designed by Dave…

    This entertaining, though overly long musical drama from 1977, was one of the titles we picked up in our first contract with United Artists. It wasn’t something we asked for and was only taken when we saw that if we didn’t we might lose the contract altogether. With Director Martin Scorsese and starring Liza Minnelli…
