Fine Feathers

Renee Houston signed a film contract,which was squires by British Lion in 1936.It was for one year paying £3750,equivalent to £178500. This was the only film she made for them.British Lion invoked the morals clause to cancel the contract,as she was becoming involved with co star Donald Stewart who she would subsequently marry. The film was originally 68 minutes long and was cut down to 39 minutes for this Pathescope release to the home market.It is therefore rather difficult to follow the plot,not helped by the fact that she speaks far too fast.Some of the dresses she wears,particularly in the finale are quite hideous
