EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial view of Elstree Studios in 1928 takes us on a journey back in time to witness the birthplace of British cinema. Located on Shenley Road, Borehamwood, these premises were home to the renowned British International Pictures Ltd., a pioneering film production company that played a significant role in shaping the early days of the industry.
The photograph, captured by Aerofilms in July 1928, offers an extraordinary perspective from above. From this vantage point, we can observe the sprawling complex with its various sound stages and buildings nestled amidst lush greenery. The studio's grandeur is evident as it dominates the landscape, exuding an air of creativity and innovation.
Elstree Studios holds immense historical significance as it served as a hub for countless iconic films produced during this era. It was here that legendary actors honed their craft and cinematic masterpieces came to life. This image allows us to imagine bustling sets filled with passionate filmmakers working tirelessly behind-the-scenes.
As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Historic England's collection, our minds are transported to a time when black-and-white silent films reigned supreme. We can almost hear echoes of laughter and applause emanating from within those walls; they bear witness to countless dreams realized and stories told through moving pictures.
