Title: Astonishingly (bad)
Product review: This is a terrible movie, in spite of all the historic blah blah about Colman's first talking film. The movie makes no sense. It is a series of drawing room scenes interspersed with car chases and kidnappings that are incoherent. Colman is amusing, but everyone else is a disaster: Joan Bennett (an early film) is absurd, and the rest of the characters (and some of the scenery) are out of some German silent expressionist film (a bad one).The only interesting thing in the whole film is a few moments when they actually appear to have hired some traditional singers to do old a cappella pub songs from southern England. Everything else is unredeemable.
