Newly restored and re-issued on DVD/Blu-Ray thanks to a successful crowd-funding campaign from Ben Model.

In a companion to our Live From New York event, the
Oscar-winning director, film historian and silent film champion Kevin Brownlow introduces another Raymond Griffith crime caper.

You’d be Surprised, featuring inter-titles by the humourist Robert Benchley of Algonquin Round Table fame. It provoked mixed reactions.

A contemporary critic described it as “One of the very best or very worst comedies I ever saw” but when shown recently at Cinecon, Hollywood, it was judged the undisputed hit of the weekend. With live piano accompaniment from John Sweeney.
