EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of the 1920s as Ivor Novello and Mae Marsh pose for a promotional shot during the production of their silent film, "The Rat" (1925), directed by Graham Cutts. The image, dated 1926, showcases the glamour and allure of the silver screen during this iconic era. Ivor Novello, a British actor, singer, and composer, rose to fame during the 1920s with his charismatic performances and unique blend of jazz and classical music. In "The Rat," he portrayed the dashing and dangerous character of Jacko, an Apache gang leader. Mae Marsh, an American actress, was a veteran of the silent film industry and brought her experience and talent to the role of Lola, the object of Jacko's affection. The film, produced by Michael Balcon for Gainsborough Pictures, was set in the gritty underworld of Islington and told a tale of love, danger, and redemption. The production took place at the famous Islington Studio, where the cast and crew brought the story to life against a backdrop of jazz music and 1920s fashion. This photograph is a testament to the rich history of the silent film era and the enduring appeal of classic cinema. It offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the magic of the movies was just beginning to captivate audiences around the world.
