EDITORS COMMENTS
Miss Sketch's Diary: A Glittering First Night at the Curzon Cinema for Le Bonheur (1938) The first night of the French film, Le Bonheur, at the prestigious Curzon Cinema in London was an event not to be missed. The glamour and elegance of the occasion were captured in a single page from The Sketch magazine, now a precious piece of cinematic history. The image begins with a group of stylishly dressed guests, including Mr. and Mrs. Anthony Acton, Sir Michael and Lady Pamela Berry (nee Smith), Lady Mairi Stewart, Viscount Errington, Virginia Gilliat, and Lady Elizabeth Paget. Their sophisticated attire and animated expressions reflect the excitement of the evening. The final picture, bottom right, reveals an intriguing gathering of personalities. Noel Coward, the renowned playwright and actor, is seen in the company of MPs J.P.L. Thomas, Robert Boothby, and Ronald Cartland. Boothby, who would later become a prominent figure in the campaign to decriminalize homosexuality, adds an intriguing layer to this already captivating scene. The Curzon Cinema, known for its avant-garde programming and sophisticated clientele, was the perfect setting for the London premiere of Le Bonheur. This enchanting photograph offers a glimpse into the glamour and intrigue of the era, a time when cinema was more than just a form of entertainment – it was an experience. As we turn the page of Miss Sketch's diary, we are transported back to 1938, a time when the magic of the silver screen brought people together in a shared appreciation of art and beauty.
