EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, taken in Twickenham, London circa 1932, we witness a momentous pause for instruction from renowned film producer Anthony Asquith. The scene unfolds during the making of the Gainsborough Pictures film, The Lucky Number. Asquith stands on the right side of the frame, his commanding presence evident as he imparts wisdom to actor Clifford Mollison on the left. However, what makes this image truly unique is the unexpected addition of three Arsenal footballers - Eddie Hapgood, Tom Whittaker, and Cliff Bastin. The convergence of these two worlds - cinema and sports - creates an intriguing juxtaposition that sparks curiosity. It seems that even amidst their busy schedules as professional athletes, these footballers found time to be part of this cinematic endeavor. Perhaps they were drawn by Asquith's reputation or simply intrigued by the allure of being involved in a movie production. As we delve into this snapshot frozen in time, it becomes apparent that collaboration knows no boundaries. Here we have individuals from different walks of life united by their passion for their respective crafts: filmmaking and football. This photograph serves as a testament to the power of artistry transcending barriers and bringing people together. Preserved through decades within its monochrome hues lies not only a visual record but also a reminder that creativity has no limits when it comes to forging connections between diverse realms such as entertainment and sport.
