FROM being an industry of little or up importance, the making of films in England has advanced by leaps and bounds during the last three years. The advent of the talking-film was chiefy responsible for this change, but that even could hardly have improved the position of British film manufacturers had they not taken advantage of it with considerable energy and vision. The quantity of talking-films produced in England during the last year or two has been greater than the most optimistic could have hoped a short time ago. But it is in regard to quality that there has been the most decided improvement. England may now reasonably claim to be produc- ing a high percentage of the world's best talking-films.
