London Films
London Films Productions is a British film and television production
company founded in 1932 by
Alexander Korda
Alexander Korda and from 1936 based at
Denham Film Studios
Denham Film Studios in Buckinghamshire, near London. The company's
productions included
The Private Life of Henry VIII
The Private Life of Henry VIII (1933), Things to
Come (1936), Rembrandt (1936), and The Four Feathers (1939). The
facility at Denham was taken over in 1939 by Rank and merged with
Pinewood to form D & P Studios. The outbreak of war necessitated
that The Thief of Bagdad (1940) was completed in California, although
Korda's handful of American-made films still had
Big Ben
Big Ben for their
opening corporate logo.[1]
After a restructuring of Korda's UK operations in the late 1940s,
London Films
London Films were now made at Shepperton. One of these was The Third
Man (1949). The company's film
The Sound Barrier
The Sound Barrier (1952) won the
Academy Award for Best Sound.[2][1]
More than 40 years after Korda died in January 1956, the company
returned to active film-making in 1997 with
Morgan Mason as the chief
executive.[3]
