Rollerball – Part 1
—
by
Read more: Rollerball – Part 1One of the UA titles from the first contract and one that Derek edited using a portable 35mm projector! It was this film and the now regular use of 35mm as master material that lead us to use Ken Locke & Keith Wilton to do much of our editing. Label was designed by our regular…

The Treasure Of Sierra Madre – Part 1

by
Read more: The Treasure Of Sierra Madre – Part 1Another superb quality black and white title from the United Artist’s contract. This 1948 film earned itself three Academy Awards and starred Humphrey Bogart, Walter Huston and Tim Holt. I’m afraid that I don’t posses many of the UA/WB inlay labels as they were shipped over to our plastic clamshell packaging manufactures, so they could…

World Cup Munich

by
Read more: World Cup MunichThis 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
Read more: The Sea Hawk #2The 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…

O’Brien, Irving Block, Louis DeWitt, Phil Kellison, Pete Peterson and Jack Rabin who all go uncredited. The UK’s answer to ‘Beast from 20,000 Fathoms’, with director Eugène Lourié at the helm again and London…

Sexy Playmates
—
by
Read more: Sexy PlaymatesThe synopsis in the sales catalogue reads “A hard hitting adult sex featurette as a bored husband gets mixed up with a liberated band of people – lust is their only thought!” It’s most likely a cut down of one of the films in our 16mm library, but which one? Marianne Frost produced the artwork…

Carry On Up the Jungle

by
Read more: Carry On Up the JungleThis was the final 4×400′ from a ‘Carry On’, Matron only received a 400′ and later we concentrated on full features. The `Carry On’ regulars set off on an exotic safari and soon find themselves plunging in and out of the wrong tents and thrashing their way through the middle of the jungle in search…

Songs From Tickle Me

by
Read more: Songs From Tickle MeWe’d already disscovered the ‘Elvis’ factor when it came to sales and rental with the highly successful package of films from Grand National so to find this in the EMI catalogue was a bonus. Some great musical numbers, all gleaned from early LPs in oder to save money. We released a 400′ a 4×400 and…

Star Performance

Read more: Star PerformanceWhen this label was first posted (4th May 2023), I wasn’t able to give only concrete information as to its contents. However group member Gary Sayer supplied me with the following report: “I have this film on standard 8 and super 8 and it isn’t clips from any of her movies. From memory, it looks…
