Scene from the Film 'Champagne': Betty Balfour Entering a Bedroom With a Male Companion She Goes to the Window as he is Leaving, 1920s. 'The average English rose, screen variety, was a sort of tomboy, indeed just like Betty Balfour, warm-hearted, and capable of expressing vivacious emotions...with no escape possible through the porthole, she realises that she's in a situation that even she might not be able to handle - yes a pretty tricky dilemma. But of course, she gets out of it somehow'. From "Time To Remember - Came The Dawn", 1925 (Reel 3); peek at the British Film Industry of the 1920s - clips from great silent films and newsreels.
