Which famous London landmark served as the opening logo for London Films Productions movies?
London Films London Films Productions is a British film and television production company founded in 1932 by Alexander Korda and from 1936 based at Denham Film Studios in Buckinghamshire, near London. The company's productions included "The Private Life of Henry VIII" (1933), "Things to Come" (1936), "Rembrandt" (1936), and "The Four Feathers" (1939). The facility at Denham was taken over in 1939 by Rank and merged with Pinewood to form D & P Studios. The outbreak of war necessitated that "The Thief of Bagdad" (1940) was completed in California, although Korda's handful of American-made films still had Big Ben for their opening corporate logo.
Movie palace A movie palace (or picture palace in the United Kingdom) is any of the large, elaborately decorated movie theaters built between the 1910s and the 1940s. The late 1920s saw the peak of the movie palace, with hundreds opened every year between 1925 and 1930. With the advent of television, movie attendance dropped and many movie palaces were razed or converted into multiple screen venues or performing arts centers.
