The Ghost Train
Surviving footage of the first sound version of Arnold Ridley's famous railway station comedy thriller
Comedy 1931 39 mins
Overview
One of the most eagerly sought after lost British films, the first sound version of Arnold Ridley's successful railway station comedy thriller teams husband and wife comedians Jack Hulbert and Cicely Courtneidge. This footage is the only version known to survive and is, unfortunately, largely mute. Still, scenes of the passengers being stranded and enough of the exciting climax (complete with ten minutes of sound) remain to make you all the more eager for the complete film to be discovered.
