Odeon Theatre 283 Bourke Street, Melbourne, VIC - 1955 - Simon & Laura Promotion - PHOTO from the Bill Nixon Collection.
Simon and Laura is a 1954 stage comedy by Alan Melville that in 1955 became a Rank Organisation film produced at Pinewood Studios.
The cast was headed by Peter Finch, Kay Kendall, Ian Carmichael, Muriel Pavlow, Maurice Denham and Thora Hird. The director was Muriel Box. The film was shot in Technicolor and VistaVision by cinematographer Ernest Steward.
Muriel Box was one of Britain’s foremost women filmmakers of the 1950s and ‘60s, but her films have largely been forgotten by the history books. Cinema Rediscovered is bringing her to the fore once again, showcasing one of her most critically acclaimed films, and the only one she made in the VistaVision format.
