Director: Randall Faye
Release Date: November 1934
An unseen film. On 30 August 1934 the Kinematograph Weekly announced that filming had begun and that ‘Permission has been granted by H.M. Office of Works to use Hyde Park for location work.’ The Daily Mirror added, 1 September, that ‘shooting in Hyde Park near the Marble Arch entrance [had taken place] early yesterday’. On 2 September the Birmingham Weekly Mercury reported that the ‘setting in Hyde Park – green sward and shady trees (Oh! how they help romance), Rotten Row, tub thumpers, and all….And even across into Kensington-gardens, where the model yachts do serious work on the Round Pond. Barry Clifton…finds plenty of space to drive his sports car (and Eve Lister) around Hyde Park’ while noting that the director, Randall Faye, ‘has spent hours in the park “absorbing atmosphere.”‘
