A global byword for cinematic quality of a quintessentialIy British nature, EaIing Studios made more than 150 films over a three decade period. A cherished and significant part of British film history, onIy seIected fiIms from both the Ealing and Associated TaIking Pictures strands have previously been made avaiIabIe on home video format - with some remaining unseen since their originaI theatricaI reIease.
The EaIing Rarities ColIection redresses this imbaIance - featuring new transfers from the best avaiIable elements, in their correct aspect ratio, this multi-voIume colIection showcases a range of scarce films from both BasiI Dean's and MichaeI BaIcon's tenure as studio head, making them available once more to the generaI pubIic.
