The Courtneys of Curzon Street (1947)

A phenomenal box-office success whose themes resonated among cinema audiences amid the upheavals of post-war Britain, The Courtneys of Curzon Street chronicles the changing fortunes of three generations of the aristocratic Courtney family - from the close of the nineteenth century, when Edward Courtney's marriage to his mother's Irish maid scandalises Victorian society, to the final days of the Second World War. Originally released in 1947, this classic period drama is presented here in a brand-new transfer from original film elements in its as-exhibited theatrical aspect ratio.
