75 years of Ealing Comedies! New posters pop art
2024 marks 75 years of the classic Ealing comedies.
2024 marks a very special celebration for fans of classic films as it’s 75 years since the birth of the British film institution that became known as the Ealing Comedies.
To mark 75 years of Ealing Comedies, Art & Hue presents 12 stylish pop art prints inspired by Ealing’s classic comedy films. These reimagined & remixed poster designs pay homage to the wit & charm of the era, celebrating the iconic productions that have left an indelible mark on film history & British comedy.
Produced under the stewardship of Michael Balcon at Ealing Studios, “Passport to Pimlico” was one of the most popular films of 1949 and, along with “Whisky Galore!”, “Kind Hearts & Coronets” & “A Run for Your Money”, all released in the same year within the space of a few months, firmly established the Ealing Comedies.
The studios had released comedies previously, such as “Hue & Cry” in 1947 and “Another Shore” in 1948, but Ealing’s prolific output in 1949 was a boom period for the studios, with critical and commercial success.
Individually, each print captures the unique essence of its respective Ealing comedy; collectively, they weave a tapestry of cinematic history & societal changes in post-war Britain, reminding us of the remarkable humour and warmth that made the Ealing comedies timeless classics.
Exclusively by Art & Hue, all pop art is printed on museum-quality archival card of 310gsm, made from ethically-sourced 100% cotton, with fine-art pigment inks for longevity.
