The Shaming of the True: A Simple Tale of British Mother Love

The Shaming of the True: A Simple Tale of British Mother Love 1930 Directed by Walter Creighton

Comedy skit shown as part of a theatrical revue. 'The picture is supposed to be a Hollywood drama of English life, wildly burlesqued, and in the middle of projection Maisie Gay stands up in the stalls, protests, argues with the players on the screen, and then steps into the picture. Finally a chorus of duchesses steps from screen to stage and the revue becomes tri-dimensional.' (Kinematograph Weekly)
